According to a Petronas statement on Thursday, Antonelli toured the state-of-the-art centre and was introduced to the cutting-edge technologies and technical capabilities that fuel the team's success on the track. Antonelli said that seeing the level of detail, innovation and teamwork behind it all had given him a whole new perspective on the importance of fluids and lubricants towards supporting the team. "It's clear how much passion and expertise goes into supporting us on track. As a driver, that gives me a lot of confidence. I'm proud to be part of this partnership and excited to keep pushing forward together," he said in the same statement.
