On Monday, Albert Costa could try the Formula Renault 2.0 Eurocup, a new car for him as it was new to him the World Series that proved last year, just after being champion of the Megane. Albert analyzed the differences between the Formula Renault 3.5 in which achieved a victory in 2011, and the Formula Renault 3.5 back in 2012 and the Megane.

AC: ” The downforce above all , the car grabs pretty well, the DRS brings much as it makes you take a lot of speed . Past 3.5 was a car which when braking it let you play around with it, I also have to say that the fact of being a year with Megane and then suddenly change the next day to a World Series, the change is very large and clearly it costed me a lot because I was all year braking at 150-100 m and then slowing the curb at 70 .. ( laughs ) the rates are 100 meters and speed is almost double and you have to put a lot of chest and cojoncillos is said in Catalan, and that’s what I missed , I was the first 1 second but hey, it is what it is, I missed adaptation, I also missed that I had a motorcycle accident (few people know that I had a scare with the scoter, going to the gym, and I got a little boy in a street that appeared in front of me, with cars parked on the right side and he came out of a school, which is what I ‘ve been all my life. Well, he rushed out, and not wanting to crash, I threw myself to the other side and I scratched my whole body , hands, and participated throughout the weekend with his hands in poor physical condition , and everyone asked me and I said, well.. with the bike on the road… I fell, and the end was a good motorcycle accident that hurt me, I was a week without going to the gym, with the Megane nothing happened but with a Handicap World Series was great, and nothing was well tolerated, and at noon when had to put new tyres ( in semi – anger tone ) I could not go with the car anymore, and it costed me a lot because my time was on old tyres and not with the new . But hey, that’s what happens, I have bad luck, it may be my fault a little, because of this accident… it could not have been at a worse time? But I think that what does not kill you makes you stronger. ”

AV: What happened? Because you easily won the championship in the last race. But it was not easy, right?
AC: “Suddenly , I left the pit stop. Just before the pit stop I had a rare move, and I said to myself “do not think, do not think” because with less you think, the less will happen, and when I was in the pit stop saying:”this is rare” I started doing weird things. And they told me “Calm , quiet” and I wasn’t quiet because the car was going from second to fifth and from fifth to second and I said “Okay, okay, do not worry, drive smooth” and I realized that driving smoother with a faulty gearbox , continued taking seconds to my follower, then I calmed down.”
AV : And this year there was no possibility of repeating the Megane?
AC: ” It is nonsense to win a championship and do it again, is frowned upon, it is a waste of time, and it could not be.”
AV: Thanks Albert , we will continue with the rest of the interview in the next days in FormulaRapida.net
