It takes a while for throttle feel to come back after a rough patch like that. Having watched from trackside, Silverstone wasn't just one win, it had to be a psychological breakthrough. Sixth place, 56 points back — that's still well within title range in my book. I'll be following the back half closely.

Sitting 6th and saying this, isn't that a bit bold?
