We achieved a milestone, I am overwhelmed - Theissen

By on

BMW Motorsport Director Mario Theissen was overwhelmed after the Canadian success of his team. Robert Kubica collected the first ever Grand Prix victory for the team which has only been in F1 for 3 years. Nick Heidfeld made it an even bigger party by finishing second.

Theissen: "It is fantastic, I am overwhelmed. It is difficult to find the right words. Today just everything worked well. We hoped for another podium here in Montreal, but would not have dreamed to get a one-two victory. Congratulations to Robert and Nick and to the entire team at home in Munich and Hinwil. Today we achieved a milestone. Both drivers worked with no errors and the strategies paid off. I think we will have to celebrate a lot today."
