Stevens happy to end debut season on positive note

Will Stevens was happy with his result in Abu Dhabi, which resulted in another two car finish for Marussia and the end of their first season since being saved from the abyss ahead of the 2015 season.

Stevens, who made his in Formula One for Caterham in the 2014 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, said after the race:

“I’m really pleased to end my debut season on a positive note with yet another two-car finish. It was also the best possible reward for the team – both here in Abu Dhabi and back at the factory – at the end of a long hard season. I’ve been feeling really comfortable in the car all weekend and thankfully I was able to carry that confidence through to the race today.”

“On the whole, I’m pretty satisfied with how things have gone for me in my debut season. I gave it everything I have and I definitely feel like I’m just getting started, so fingers crossed this is just the beginning. I would like to thank everyone in the team for their support but, in particular, John and Graeme, who we say goodbye to here today.”
