A still e🍸mot✱ional Jake on that first Grand Prix win.
“No words,” he told BT. “I’m speechless. I’ve got no꧑ emotion, I don’t kn🧔ow what’s going on.
“Can you believe it?
“Anybody out there, from the UK, who feels like it’s never going t𒁃o come? Literally never, ev🌜er stop believing.
“I’m a kid who came from Dover who had nothing.
“My dad gave me everything to achieve my goals.
“Finally, I’ve won, I’ve got here.
“I bided my time, like the team said, I got into the lead but then made𓆏 a false neutral and made it hard fo💝r myself. But determination wins over everything.”
His friend Fabio Q൩uartararo added: “I knew it! I am so happy for him and for his wife.
“It’s r💟eally great for him. This is just the first oneಞ.”
BT’s Sylvain Guintoli said about Dixon: “We know his character, he has ꧋that flamboyance. There’s nothing better than a happy Jake,🅺 he gave us a real treat.
“We all knew it was coming but when you finally stamp that win, after all the hard work𒀰, it is so nice.
“We all had a moment watching the images.
“It is the work of re🧸silience, never le🌳tting go, always going to work. He’s always on a bike trying to perfect himself.
“He’s super fit, trying to keep his weight down.
“He worked at the victory, visualised it.”
