And here’s Charles Leclerc: “It wasn’t enough today but oh my god – I really enjoyed that race! It was hard racing, but fair … every race should be like this. We are in a street track, we’ve been pushing like I’ve rarely pushed before, so there is respect. But I’m also a little disappointed.”
Verstappen speaks: “It was a good race, we were battling hard. We just had to play the long game, the tyres were wearing out quite quick. It wasn’t easy but eventually I managed to get ahead - I’m just really happy to kickstart the season.”
