On one of the team radio messages broadcasted he seems to complain about something not as it used to sound in previous race with his engine. The communication wasn't very clear so I don't know if that was a problem or just something different with his new engine. Lets hope it is the latter.

And thanks guys! I just locked up in a few places :D
