It is a shame we weren’t able to get out on track this afternoon and get the qualifying session done. Today in the Sprint our pace was quite strong but it was just a shame as we got stuck in the DRS train so we had to be patient and couldn’t really do much. We had a good run out of turn three so I could overtake and I felt like I could fight the cars in front of me and unfortunately we ran out of laps and had the yellow flags. It was a shame we got the penalty, however, for me it was a very positive race and we had the pace. We were in the fight which was good as this hasn’t been the case in previous races. The weather is pretty unpredictable at the moment and we don’t know what is going to happen tomorrow. It will be very tight, but hopefully we will have another positive day.

We still have some things to work on, specifically with the braking, but overall we had good pace today. It was a shame in the end with the VSC, as we think we could’ve caught the Alpine in front. It’s been a while since I’ve felt this happy with the car. We want to push for more in qualifying and the race and finish a strong weekend, as we’ve been pretty competitive so far. The McLarens are looking really strong but I think we are in the mix for the podium tomorrow. It was a real shame that we weren’t able to run in qualifying due to the rain and conditions, but hopefully everything clears up tomorrow and we’re able to get out there for the Brazilian fans.

I think we had the speed today but not enough to overtake Pierre, even with DRS we weren’t really close enough. I was stuck behind him for most of the race, and when Checo came up behind, we just didn’t have the speed to keep him there today. We were super unlucky with the VSC at the end; the timing of everything in this race felt really awkward for us, it’s frustrating but it was still a good race for us with decent pace and we’ll obviously push forward tomorrow.

In the Sprint this morning I had a good start, but unfortunately, after that, I didn’t have much pace and struggled to make some positions up. After the Sprint, we checked the data and I think we’ve found something, so hopefully, we’ll be able to improve for tomorrow. It’s a shame that we were not able to do the qualifying this afternoon, especially for fans who waited for a long time in wet and cold conditions. We’ll now get ready for tomorrow, with both qualifying and race ahead of us.
