Lotus driver Romain Grosjean has said that he is no longer the black sheep in Formula One as his current form has helped him to shed the image.
Grosjean earned the tag after he became the first driver in 20 years to earn a barn after he triggered a massive corner clash at Spa last season. And the driver was also involved in seven such incidents prior to the one at Spa.
“I try to stay away from incidents as much as I can. I didn’t change but I have improved. I have been working hard and that is not a secret and I think I have showed on the track,” he said.
“For sure I am not anymore the black sheep in the middle of the field. It makes life easier. I am happy with the progress I did and now I feel pretty good. Very often [I am] fighting at the front – I like it,” he added.
