The weekend through OP’s visor

Quali…

“I’m really pleased with that. The car has felt good all weekend, so I am super happy to come away with it. I’ve been chipping away steadily all weekend and managed to put it all together for my final lap, so I’m stoked to be on Pole. There are a few variables in play for the race, so let’s see what happens. I’m looking forward to it.”

The race…

“I’m really pleased to come away with the win. I felt in control throughout the race and was able to push and save where I needed to. However, it was incredibly unfortunate for Lando as you never want to see your teammate DNF, or gain points in that way.

I am very satisfied with the job we’ve done and all of the work to ensure we could maximise everything around here, improving everywhere. Thank you to the team for their work. We’ve still got a long way to go.”
