"It's very difficult to put it into words. I have no words right now, "Suarez said in a conversation with ESPN after the race with which he sealed his title. "I feel very proud of everyone and grateful to have the family that I have. My mom, my dad, gave me all the tools to be here right now, "he added in his emotional words.
