For me today, the highlight of the race was the first half when I was trying to get a spot and overtake. It was good to initially get the overtake but after Lando passed me again, I knew we had to manage our tyres and our pace for the rest of the race and keep everyone behind. The car did snap a bit on the first lap and I felt like I was doing a bit of drifting as there was a lot of sand on turn two. Qualifying was a big step forward for us, but today it was a bit more difficult as we were struggling on the long runs and it was more of a fight behind me. We got lucky with P2 as we couldn’t match the pace of the McLarens in the race and were struggling with the tyre behaviour and grip in the low speed. Despite this, I’m very happy for Isack to get his first podium: he had a fantastic weekend and good lap times and coming in as a rookie is always hard and he has done really well. 

It was a crazy race, I had a big issue in the last stint where I lost power in the car. It was a difficult race to manage, the safety cars happened at horrible times for me and then we had the issue, so it was a tricky race. I stayed focused and just tried to adapt with the issue and try to get into the points which we did. Ultimately I'm happy with P9 and it's good to be back into the points which gives me confidence. The last three races the Team have given me a lot to increase performance in the car and this is a step in the right direction. Also, a massive congratulations to Isack and his team as I know what this result means to them. 

This is what I’ve always dreamed of, and it feels incredible, I’m absolutely over the moon. The team has worked so hard to get us here today, and I couldn’t be prouder. I didn’t expect today’s result, but achieving one of my dreams makes it even more special. It was a tough race physically, especially after the break. I had a tricky start, but we did this on pure pace and merit. I knew I had to nail the final safety car restart, so I defended as hard as I could and brought it home. The battles were intense, especially in the opening laps, with the pressure from other cars, but we held strong. There are so many people to thank, from my family to the Red Bull family. I hope we can carry this momentum into next week and keep scoring points. 

I'm super happy for the team. Isack drove a great race and to be on the podium is exceptional. The team have been working very hard and it's so well deserved. As for my race, I'm really disappointed that the incident took place. The stewards decision echoes the rule book and unfortunately Carlos wasn't ahead of me at the apex and the contact ruined both of our races. That being said, the podium result shows the potential of the car, which is very positive as we head to Monza next weekend.
