Today we definitely maximised everything that we had available. We drove quite a defensive race today and it was quite tough out there. The tyre degradation was quite high and in the first two stints we were going through the tyres quite quickly. We were quite aggressive with our strategy to stay ahead and during the last pit stop I thought it might be difficult to make it to the end. The last stint helped us a bit with the lighter fuel load and we were a bit more kind on the tyres which was positive. If you look at the whole race this was the maximum result possible. We didn’t really have the pace to fight upfront and had a bit too much degradation to be in the fight for the win, so I’m happy to be P2. The gap wasn’t big to George but didn’t think I had the pace to fight for the win. There are lots of positives from the weekend: as a Team we did the best performance possible, got it right and our car was in a decent window. Looking to the next race we have a bit of work to do with our tyre management and the degradation but lots of positives to take forward.

The pace felt okay today so we were able to make up some positions after starting in P18. On the medium tyre I was in more traffic and just couldn’t maximise in the dirty air, the safety car also was not at the best time for our race. It was at least a clean race after a messy day yesterday, and we made some improvements and upgrades to the car this weekend so we are going in a positive direction. This was the best we could achieve today, but I want more. I’m looking forward to debriefing with the Team, resetting, and then going to Austria next as it is a track I really like. My focus is on building up the confidence and trust in the car and hopefully can get good results in Austria in front of a home crowd.

It was a difficult Sunday here in Montréal. I had high graining on the medium tyres at the start of the race and unfortunately, I think we pitted a little bit too late, which made us lose a few places. After that, I just got stuck in a DRS train for the rest of the race, and towards the end, we didn’t really have much pace and therefore got past from other cars. Since the start of the weekend we’ve been struggling a bit with the car, so we’ll review everything together with the team and we’ll get back pushing always more in Austria in two weeks time.

It was always going to be a difficult race starting from the pit lane, but we took the decision to install a new PU after a tough Quali yesterday. A cooling issue towards the end of today's race meant we unfortunately had to retire, which is a shame given the pace of the car this weekend was good. We'll keep working on the speed and I'll keep working on myself to reset ahead of Austria.
