“It wasn't that bad, it feels a bit like old times. We are very happy with today as we can finally race again. Now we can run our own race and have a good pace.”

“It was fun fights, a good sprint. There was a lot going on and towards the end I had problems with the tires. We made it to the first corner, it was fun!

“It's encouraging to see that we have a chance tomorrow. Our car is not optimally positioned for qualifying.”

“It was a good race, I'm pretty happy with the outcome. I thought I could take second place, my front tires were completely destroyed.

“Disappointing end but happy with the race result, good score.

“Today was a good start, good first corner. I did my best, we don’t have the pace of Max or the Ferraris.”
