"It's a great day for all of us, the whole team. They deserve such a good result with the cars finishing fourth and fifth. It's incredible for our 50th grand prix. I'm so, so happy for all the guys. We've done an amazing job all weekend. We had some luck in the race with the Mercedes cars not finishing, but it's been a great weekend and we can really build on that. There are still a few things we can improve here and there, but I'm happy we managed to get that long stint on the tyres. The last 20 laps were not fun – there were blisters on the rears – and I was afraid they were going to explode at any time. I am just so happy that we hung in there and finished fourth and fifth."

"We've had a very good weekend. To challenge for top-five, we didn't expect that. We finished both cars in the top-five, and that's an incredible job from the team and I'm really proud of the whole team. We were struggling with blistering on the tyres – the whole of the soft stint. They blistered very badly. I managed that, and then had pressure from behind, so I had to push, but I had a good race. We've shown this weekend that we've got a good car. Actually, it's not only this weekend – we've shown all year that the car is very competitive. We've just got to keep going like this."
Guenther Steiner, team principal
"A fantastic weekend for the whole team. We can be proud of our workforce, for all the guys. It's just a great day, and on the 50th race, to finish fourth and fifth, what more can you wish for?"
