This is the last thing I would have wanted; the goal here was to have a clean weekend and so this is extremely frustrating.” Sadly, the congested track and the cooler tyres meant that Alex could not improve, but it was a valiant effort in the circumstances. We struggled a bit with the balance in qualifying, but we cleared a very tight battle with our rivals in Q1 and we still got into a position that will allow us to fight for the points tomorrow. We did the best we could and we had the right approach to this session. I don’t think the result is representative of what the car can do in the race – there is more to come. Hopefully we’ll be in a position to fight tomorrow as the car in the long run felt good and we were able to follow, so hopefully we can follow and pass.” "We found a bit of pace overnight with the changes and were able to get the tyres in a better temperature region today but there wasn't much left in the car. “It was hard but there was potential to be in the top 10. It wasn’t the right thing to do and that costs us a couple of tenths, but Charles put in a tremendous lap, he put everything together and I didn’t. Hopefully tomorrow in the race we can be a lot closer, make it hard for them, have a strong race and enjoy it. We saw that McLaren and Alpine have made a step forward, we just didn’t have the pace to do much better. "Compared to yesterday and to the last race, today was a good day for me. After the difficult start to the season, today’s result is a great boost for everyone in the team, both here at the track and back home.

MV: Well probably the track has a little bit to do with it but, yeah, so far in qualifying it's not been amazing just because of not having a great balance and yeah… SP: Yeah, I think it's a bit of a shame, because I think for tomorrow into the race, definitely the racing could have been a lot better. And the last sector also on Q3 lap, on the last Q3 lap, I lost a little bit, but just because it was very difficult to see where I was. CL: Yeah, I think on our side, I haven't spoken about it yesterday or at the drivers’ briefing, but on our side with the heavy bouncing that we have with a DRS it was quite tricky sometimes. I just struggled a lot with the balance of the car, and it just doesn't give you confidence to push. So yeah, you have to ask I guess, the FIA, why they took it away. It was completely dark and there was no sun, so I went back and then there was a lot of sun. You are just guessing a little bit, and it's just with the rhythm of the weekend, you know more-or-less that you need to turn here. My first run in Q3 started to feel a bit better and I was actually hooking it up, but then I lock up again in one corner, just because of a random balance shift. In Q3 a little bit better, on the first run was good, second run wasn't. It was a very tricky session. Q: It seems to be a bit of a theme for you. I regret a bit the decision we took going into Q3 without a strategy on the tyres.
