"All in all, we had a good weekend here in Miami, so of course I am disappointed to miss out on first place. While we had good pace on the Hard tyres, it was more tricky for us on the Mediums which our competitors were just faster on today, so we couldn't close the gap in the first stint. I thought we'd have a shot at taking back the lead after the Safety Car, but it just wasn't enough today.
"I thought the atmosphere was amazing this weekend and there was a really great show around the race and I look forward to coming back!"
Carlos Sainz
"After a couple of eventful GPs, it's good to be back on the podium and to have both cars up there for the team. In general, it was a solid race but also a very tough one. The neck is still not 100% and half way through the race it became a limitation.
"Defending from Checo (Perez) who was on new Mediums after the restart was also very tough and the slightest mistake would have meant losing P3. I managed to fend him off well and the podium was the reward.
"I think I needed a race like this to reset a bit and build on it for the upcoming races. Up next is my home GP and we'll make sure we get there in the very best. Miami has been a unique weekend. Thanks to all the fans out there for their support!"
Mattia Binotto, Team Principal
"We can't be completely happy with today's race because, although the F1-75 was competitive, our rivals were a few tenths per lap quicker than us. If you consider how many points we are taking home from here, we can't be too disappointed, given that we are leading both championships, but it's clear we now need to respond. We are keen to get the job done and there are still a lot of races to go.
"I want to congratulate both our drivers for the way they raced today. After a splendid pole yesterday, Charles left nothing on the table in his efforts to win while, from qualifying onwards, Carlos made up for Friday's setback and this afternoon, he produced a solid performance, especially in the way he fended off Perez in style in the closing stages.
"Finally, I want to thank the American fans for their enthusiastic welcome and my congratulations to F1 and the Grand Prix organisers for putting on an incredible show, both on and off the track."
