"Everyone has their own ritual [for time trials]. However, it is primarily a struggle with yourself. You can't let go. It's like running on your last leg. Then you just don't think anymore. Well, maybe about when you can stop. When I'm nearing the end of a stage, my thoughts run off somewhere. You have to focus on yourself, to add a little more. I'm losing my breath, but I have to keep pushing because I know each second counts. You cannot afford to be distracted. It is important how you enter the corner, how you accelerate along it, how your strength is distributed. Therefore, there is no time to think about other things." (dziennikbaltycki.pl, 01 Apr 2017)
