Rossi: “Lucky on the occasion of Stevens' spin”

Albeit with a few hiccups between the five second penalty for Stevens due to speeding in the pit lane and the Englishman himself spinning on lap 42, also in Japan Manor brought both cars home safely.

“It goes without saying that I am disappointed with today's result – he declared Will, 19th – Unfortunately the two episodes that occurred made me lose the advantage I had. It's a shame because the pace had been good all weekend. At this point I will make up for it in Russia."

“In the first stint I struggled quite a bit, but then things improved – he said Alexander Rossi, 18th – When my partner turned around I was right behind him, so I was lucky to get out without problems. I confess it was a heart-in-mouth moment. Taking stock, I can only be satisfied with these two first experiences of mine in F1."
