Massu further explained the hunger Thiem has to achieve more in his career. Thiem is looking forward to the future.

“You try to be a winner, you are thinking in the future all the time. There are not so many moments that you can think about the past. This is our life. You always want more, and I think it’s the same situation for Domi now.”
