\u00ab If we want to continue to achieve such good results, we absolutely need to take another step forward next season. Realistically, we know that we need half a second if we want to stay competitive next season. Otherwise, it looks like what we experienced at the end of the season: it seems like you’re going backwards \u00bb, explains Andrea Stella.<\/p>\n

This is our philosophy, and we will continue down this path \u00bb, the Italian continues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
