Nico Hulkenberg
"The car felt better and I think the relative performance looked a lot more promising than yesterday but it came at a price, having to start from the pitlane. I feel like if we had a half decent qualifying and qualified in the midfield, we might've been able to fight and challenge for points today. There are some positives and encouraging signs, but at the same time it was difficult out there with a lot of tyre management going on, but that was the case for everyone."
Kevin Magnussen
"I think the race was better because of the changes we made. It still wasn't enough though, we weren't fast enough, and we finished in the position we started in from the pitlane, so we need to find more, but we live to fight another day. It felt better today after having done the changes, putting more downforce on and it was definitely a better set-up."
Guenther Steiner, team principal
"It was a tough race, but obviously it was the right decision to start from the pitlane with the modifications to the downforce level. We learned quite a bit and hopefully we can look into the data and get a little bit better in Mexico. It's not a magic solution that we've got now, but some of the comments from Kevin and Nico were encouraging, so let's hope we can get closer to what is possible with the car in Mexico."
