“It started really badly -commented Toto wolff- third position is not good. Lewis wasn't able to find the feeling with the car, Valtteri did better but it's not enough. However, we improved and could have fought for pole position if it hadn't been for Lewis' mistake on the second lap.".

“Not really, we knew they were fast and we were aware of their pace. I don't know if they brought any updates here but I think we did well anyway.".
