"I think it was a frustrating race for everyone who qualified between seventh and 10th on the hypersofts. It was such a poor tyre in the race. We did 10 laps and they completely went, while the ultrasofts did, I don't know how many laps, 40? So, it's almost better not to qualify in the top-10. Maybe we need to think about that a little bit because I felt like I pushed really hard in qualifying and in the race every single lap. I did the best I could but, in the end, I had no chance of being in the top-10. I'm sorry if I blocked anyone, it was not my intention. I believe I did my best. I was fighting with Sergey (Sirotkin), who was doing a little bit of go-kart racing out there. I couldn't really slow down. Pierre (Gasly) was on my gearbox and Sergey was on my front wing. I passed him, then as soon as I passed him, I let Lewis (Hamilton) by."

"It was a long day at the office. Obviously, it was a tough day for the team. I guess a slight highlight was getting the track record. It's not really worth anything but perhaps a smile. Let's move on, reset, and get ready to attack again in Russia."
Guenther Steiner, team principal
"Not the weekend we wanted. We fought hard. If you have to start on these tyres, and the other ones are so much superior, if you qualify outside of the top-10, you have such an advantage, which you cannot make up in the race. Then we got stuck behind the Williams, which didn't move out of the way, one thing went to another, and that's where we ended up. Nevertheless, I think we tried to do our best. We are not as bad as it looks like."
