"He wasn't under that much pressure. He was out of the race [in terms of victory], in my opinion, when he made his mistakes. People may characterise it as cracking under pressure, but in fairness I don't think that was the case.They were simply mistakes. Drivers make them, so do teams, all human beings. So it's not him cracking under pressure, but self-evidently he simply made a couple of mistakes. You could even say he made them at the right time, when he wasn't winning. I'd like to have seen some of those mistakes when he was leading a race, but it can also swing the other way.He has done a pretty good job so far this year, so I don't think he is cracking."
