"The weekend hasn't been too good but still, the race was fun going through all the different stages with different tyres and conditions. I'm happy I got through it and came through quite well. I feel the pace was actually pretty decent when I had some clear track but for most of the race, I was stuck in traffic like you are in Monaco. To some extent, I feel the problems we had have been Monaco specific, so I'm quite hopeful in Barcelona we should be in a better position, so I look forward to that."
Kevin Magnussen
"We tried everything. We tried to do the opposite of everyone, and it didn't work out. Initially, in the dry, it was looking interesting but then when the rain came, I stayed out hoping for a safety car or a red flag, but that didn't happen of course. We ended up last, put the full wets on but we couldn't get them started at all, so the race was over by then. There are a lot of incentives to take risks when you're outside the top 10 and that's what we did today, but it didn't work out. Next week is another race week."
Guenther Steiner, team principal
"We tried everything possible today to get into the points. There's no point in finishing twelfth, thirteenth or fourteenth so we decided to take a gamble at the end staying out and then pitting for full wets as you never know what can happen, but it didn't work out. The race was lost yesterday in qualifying, and we knew that if something special doesn't happen, we cannot get into the points. We tried, everybody was working hard to get it done. We got a penalty – we don't know what for on lap 1 – again, inconsistency from the FIA there, but it seems to be what now is normal."
