Toro Rosso, Ricciardo: “I am satisfied with the performance in qualifying and with eleventh place”

It was an afternoon of mixed fortunes for the Toro Rosso team, with P11 achieved by Daniel Ricciardo in qualifying for the German GP, ​​while with Vergne he didn't go beyond 18th position.

Daniel Ricciardo – 11: “I'm satisfied with the performance and eleventh place is good enough for us. Of course, I'm a little disappointed that I missed out on the top ten, but overall this result puts us in a good position for tomorrow and hopefully we can finish in the points, even if the race is dry as expected. As for my fastest lap, even though I was on intermediates, I seemed to find more grip when there was more water on the track. It was a tough session and I had fun out there this afternoon.”

Jean-Eric Vergne – 18: “I'm disappointed that the rain came just a little too late for me. I'm still confident of having a good race tomorrow, we feel like we're a little more competitive in the dry than we were two weeks ago. With the rain that hit during the sessions, we didn't do as many laps on the dry tires as usual and seeing how they perform tomorrow will be an interesting factor. ”
