Grosjean: I'm not too aggressive

During the first six Grands Prix of the season, the Frenchman showed good top speed by putting in strong qualifying sessions, but in the race he often struggled to deliver. According to him, he is not the victim of his enthusiasm but of a lack of luck.

«In Australia, I really couldn't do anything (with Maldonado). In Malaysia, it?s true that it was my fault (with Michael Schumacher). I spun while the track was wet. And in Monaco, what could I do?, remember Romain Grosjean. Trying to get a scooter and a bus together in Sainte Devote is difficult, so when there are four cars abreast, it's even more difficult. It's part of the game. The start is a crucial moment in the race and sometimes the track is too narrow. When you're at the front of the peloton, it's sometimes more complicated, but that doesn't pose a problem for me. I was not overly aggressive with others. I was just unlucky. I don’t think I’ve ever done anything crazy during starts. »
