![]() Q: You say the pace was strong but it seemed that Max was managing quite a lot initially when you were in striking distance, and then at the end he pulled quite a bit gap. I tried to go after Max, but just didn't have enough. Things to improve for tomorrow but nevertheless, caught sleeping a little bit with George on Lap One but the pace was strong after. I was just a little bit on the safe side. Like you said, my initial start was good but the second phase of the launch… maybe I was just a bit conservative. I think I have more power, but, I don't know. Lando NORRIS: No, he doesn’t have more power. What happened off the line? Seemed like reaction times initially were pretty decent and then at the end Max just seemed to have more power. Q: Lando, unfortunately not the win you would have wanted to have today, but it’s still a second place. We had a very good day overall and yeah, hopefully tomorrow, which is the main race, we can consolidate on a strong result. SP: Obviously it’s important – but it’s more important to keep the momentum going now. ![]() That gives you four points more in the buffer between the two of you. Q: Well, you scored six points there, Lewis only scored two. So, I ended up pushing a lot and unfortunately in the end it ended-up costing us. I had to push and we know that this place is very sensitive for that. SP: Yeah, the problem I had is that I couldn’t manage. Were you dealing with that a lot in the car as well? And, as you said, those battles didn't allow you really to not push as much as you would need to. Q: We heard a lot of interaction on the radio between Max and GP about tyre deg and maintaining the tyres. Overall, it’s been a good day, good points there – but unfortunately, I think without the start, we could have been a lot further up. I had to use all of my tyres and then I think I paid the price towards the end. I had a terrible start, ended-up losing a place to George and then another place to Lewis into Turn 4, and from then on, I was fighting. Sergio PÉREZ: Yeah, it was not an easy one. We saw some really nice battles between you and George. Q: Checo, congratulations on third place for you today. 1 – Max VERSTAPPEN (Red Bull Racing), 2 – Lando NORRIS (McLaren), 3 – Sergio PÉREZ (Red Bull Racing)
