Paolo, thank you for welcoming me these last two years. I know it hasn't been easy, but you still took me on because you're an idiot ," he said, to the laughter of the team and his loved ones.

"Honestly, I couldn't have done it without you. This adventure probably should have ended about fifteen years ago, and yet, we managed to accomplish extraordinary things together. I couldn't have done anything without each and every one of you, so thank you."
