“We did the best we could today. We are the fourth fastest team right now, and the Ferrari and Aston that we were battling were just quicker than us. It was close for a second with Sainz, but I couldn’t hang on and he just went away in the final laps”
“Big congratulations to Fernando and the whole Aston Martin team too. They did a great job today. It was a fun tussle we had for a moment, but he was too quick. We are lacking a lot of downforce, and we’ve got a lot of work to do to add more to the car.”
“As soon as we put more load on the front and rear, we will be able to pick up our pace. We’ve just got to keep working; we know we are not where we need to be.”
“I’ve got to stay positive, keep my head up and keep pushing the Team. I will be a positive light for them and get the best points I can.”
“Do I believe we can close the gap at some stage? Yes. But I think it’s quite hard with the concept we have.”
