Robert Kubica:
"It wasn’t an
easy session. We had a small issue on the first run, so I lost a bit of
confidence and knowledge about the conditions. In the end, I managed a
reasonable lap, but it was qualifying as expected and unfortunately the
pace is what it is. The race is long, and we have to make sure we do our
best. It will be tough, but we will see what happens and try to enjoy
tomorrow." |

George Russell:
"It was a good final qualifying session for us. Prior to the
weekend, and after yesterday, we were anticipating being a second away
from the next car. I think we ended up being three tenths, and a second
from Q2. You have to take the small victories and be pleased that we did
the maximum with the car. Tomorrow we will do our best, it is our last
opportunity until next year." |

Dave Robson, Senior Race Engineer:
"Using the information that we gathered yesterday evening, we made
some small changes to the cars for qualifying, which enabled us to
significantly close the gap to Alfa Romeo in Q1. Overall the pace of the
car was as expected but, once again, the team did a good job to get the
most out of the car and both drivers put in strong performances.
Our high fuel pace in FP2 was more competitive than our low fuel pace.
We don’t expect that the changes we made to the car overnight will
affect this, and so we go into tomorrow looking to challenge both Haas
and Alfa Romeo." |
