Statements
MaxVerstappen, Red Bull - pole position"It was a very good weekend. I think the car was very good in qualifying. In the last two laps, it was not easy to make a good lap with all the traffic on the track. The first round in Q3 was good enough in the end, it was mostly a good first sector. I am very happy to be on the home track in pole position. If you look at the trail, there aren’t many bends, but the ones there are tough. It’s a small trail, but it’s hard to catch a good circle on it. The first one in Q3 wasn’t bad, but the round is never perfect, but luckily it was enough. Tomorrow’s race will be tough, though sometimes I wish everything was easier. The race will be exciting and I hope as interesting as in France."
Valtteri Bottas, Mercedes - second place"Too bad about the penalties, which is why I will start the race as fifth tomorrow. I'd rather start from another place. When I look at free practice, my qualifications were strong because on FP2 and FP3 I was still struggling with the race car. But we found the right setting and the feeling was much better. In the first Q3 attempt, I only had traffic with Tsunoda, so I lost a few tenths. So something more was possible. We are aware of the penalties, so we thought the medium mix would be the best. Hopefully the racers in front of me on the soft mix will only have a slight advantage at the start of the race. Tomorrow is a new day, so we'll see. We can definitely attack Red Bull."
Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes - third place"We need to be at the top of our strategy game and try to stay as close to it as possible. We are lagging behind this year, so we need to put even more pressure. Make sure we turn all the stones to get the most out of our race car. We enjoy this part of the fight. We can’t afford more thrust because we would be slower on the planes where we’re already losing. It was predicted to rain in the last two days, but it didn’t. I didn’t think about it for tomorrow, I don’t care. I have to do my best and end the story. I think this weekend has helped the team progress, but we are still missing something. It was hard to catch his time today. But I am happy and proud of my hard work. We are still in a fight, but it will be hard to beat tomorrow Red Bull."
