“Kim Anderson told me that normally, in this situation, Fabian is going to win. He likes this kind of ‘parcours’ and he’s also faster through the turns than everybody else. I had on my plan that eight minutes 50 seconds would be around the time he needed if he was going to win. We knew after just two kilometers that he was good enough for that and that he was going to win. _ “In the beginning he took a few risks, of course… but in the end he didn’t take any gambles. We saw that he was going faster than the motorbikes and that was a cause for concern. After the crash of Stuart [O’Grady] we were not so relaxed in the car but Fabian is a quality rider and he handled the course perfectly.”
