Now I am happy and ready to celebrate the holiday with this victory. For me the season is ending with such a good win. What could have been better than this."

"It's very special, I'm super thrilled and super happy right now," he added.

"There's no better way to end the season than winning here so obviously I'm incredibly happy. But I'm now very much looking forward to next year already."
