Back-to-back

Was it easy or was it hard?

The Red Bull Air Race season may only be eight races long, but when you’re based in Australia it’s almost like a constantly rolling beast that leaves little time to stop and re-group from one event to the next, such is the travel involved.

But finding time to recap how our last two races have gone – back-to-back wins in France and then Japan – plus looking at what comes next in the season is something our team prioritises. There’s a whole discussion there, but in this column, I want to talk about our race in Chiba, Japan. It was our second win for 2018 and the second time we have managed back-to-back air race wins.
