“But then this relationship evolved into friendship.
“I live in Russia and he lives abroad. We just became friends who can message each other and send holiday greetings.”
“(Now) we’re friends, we just write to each other and call sometimes. He’s in the friend zone.
“I go to his races occasionally, the last time was in Sochi (at the Russian Grand Prix). We’ve been friends for three years. When I met him, I could barely speak English, I could only understand it.”

“Of course I didn’t give him a chance, come on! I know some other girls he wrote to, so I understood straight away, ‘dude, goodbye, delete.”
The Portuguese superstar should not be too disheartened though.
