Toro Rosso, Kvyat: “Nice to have finished in the top ten in Malaysia too”

Overall, it was a positive race Toro Rosso, who even though he had to take the pit road with Vergne, reached the top ten again with Kvyat.

“It was nice to have finished in the points for the second time in a row – he declared Daniil – It was an intense race with a lot of battles especially in the opening stages with Williams and McLaren, both faster than me. I'm happy that I managed to maintain my position and in general with the progress of the weekend which was one of continuous progression. I'm looking forward to Bahrain to see how the car will perform on the winter testing circuit.”

“Just after the start, which was excellent, I felt that something wasn't working, I lost power and someone passed me – the story of Jean-Eric – Afterwards I found myself sandwiched between a Caterham and a Bianchi and perhaps I was a little presumptuous having tried to pass them both, ending up damaging the front wing. Coming out of the pit lane I hoped for rain or the safety car to be able to close the gap, but in the end I had to retire because the car still had problems. It's a shame because I could have achieved a good result considering the pace I had on the hard tires. However, the improvements recorded on the single-seater and the fact that the next appointment is really just around the corner give morale."
