"the race was good because i just drove a good race" 😮‍💨😮‍💨 lando: there was a fairly easy chance to qualify for P2 yesterday. and i don't think we had the pace today to finish second place. but we're still just too slow. the race was good because i just drove a good race. apart from that, we need to work a lot more with the car because it's not good enough.

"i saw a lot of fans, a lot of supporters in the grandstands, even in the inlap and everything. so thank you very much" 🥹💚

lando: "i think we achieved the best we could today. it was clear we didn't have the pace of the others.. but we gave ourselves a chance, which was the main thing, and we had a good strategy through everything. so happy, just not quick enough"

"the last stint on the hards, did you feel was pretty strong? you kept max behind for a good long time" lando: "the pace on the hards was very, very strong actually. the thing is just i'm having to push way beyond what i kind of would do in an ideal scenario. i gave myself the best opportunity for a great result today, which was hoping for a vsc or a safety car or whatever it was. so we certainly gave ourselves the best shot. by the end of the race it didn't look like it because i'm paying the price of trying to get the best result, especially in that middle part of the race. but p5 was the best we could achieve today, so i'm happy. i feel like i drove a very strong race and managed to give myself the best of every opportunity we had. we just still aren't quick enough and not quick enough to do anything surprising or really be able to come through. i feel like the pace was kind of where we were after the first ten laps, is where i was at the end of the race. so we we need a little bit more"
