Esteban Ocon

We had a good start in today’s race, gaining a few positions off the line, but we did not have the pace to be a points contender, and we could not keep up with the train of cars ahead. We maximised what we had, but we couldn’t move further ahead without any big opportunities to capitalise. We have a good break ahead of us, and I’m sure we are all looking forward to some recovery before a busy final few months of the season. We must continue to work hard, aim to extract more from the package and be able to optimise everything we have in our hands.

Pierre Gasly

A challenging and frustrating race for us. We are just not quick or competitive enough at the moment. The lack of pace forced us to try different strategies to improve our end result. We stayed out long on the Mediums on the first stint and lost a lot of time to cars we were racing at the start. The plan was to disrupt some cars behind to benefit Esteban and get something from the race. The reality is that we were in ninth place three races ago [in Zandvoort], and in the last three races, we were far away from the top ten. We must find some performance, and much work is ahead of us to improve our current performance.
I look forward to a short break before Austin, where we all must be determined for a return to form.

Oliver Oakes – Team Principal

It was a tough day on track and a repeat of what we saw in Qualifying, which follows the trend from the previous couple of races. We had expected to perform better on this circuit configuration but did not have the pace. This is the reality of where we are currently. There’s a lot of work behind the scenes to bring more performance to the car in the coming races. With four weeks until Austin, we need a final push to the end of the season.
