“Is Lewis a contender? He has to be for the title now, do you see him as a serious threat ongoing the way Ferrari are improving?”
Kimi: “I mean for sure, they're in an incredible form. Ferrari is very reliable, but they're quick as well. So yeah, we just need to maximize every opportunity that we have and then, try to do our best. But it's not gonna be straightforward, but yeah, I'm already looking forward to the next one because I really wanna go back to where we were finishing before.”
🚨 George 🗣️"()The pace looked strong at the beginning, I felt in control and comfortable in the first 10-15 laps. Then, I just struggled on the hard tyre. But at the end of the day, I'm glad to be back on the podium."
"It's good to get some points on the board. It's not the race I would have wanted, and at the moment, Lewis is also ahead of me in the championship. Their upgrades seem to be really strong, so kudos to them."
🚨 Kimi 🗣️"I feel a bit empty right now. But it is what it is, races are like this. It comes and goes, and yeah, the pace was good today. I struggled a little bit in stint 1, but in stints 2 and 3, I felt I had quite a lot of pace"
"Of course, it's a shame because it was three laps to the end, almost there, but as I said, races are like this, it's no one's fault. Now I'm looking forward to the next one."
[how satisfied you are with this p3]
k: tbf not really happy. struggling with the feeling of the car. very low grip. bit attacking a bit too much corners. definitely not the best performance but long run was good. looking forward to that tomorrow.
🚨 George 🗣️"It's been a great weekend so far, I'm always fighting. I came into this weekend with a clean slate, felt good and it is great to be on pole."
"It will be an interesting race tomorrow, Lewis did a great job to get up there so I'm sure there will be a fight. Tomorrow will not be easy."
