Charles Leclerc, P1
"I’m really proud of the work we have done as a team to get back on the top step of the podium. Coming to Silverstone, we didn’t expect to be this competitive. We were much faster and closer to our competitors than we thought, and just as we analyse our data on challenging weekends, we also have to analyse our data on a strong weekend like this, to understand what really made that difference.
"We made some changes on my car between Saturday morning to the afternoon, and I got back the feeling I had been missing. This was confirmed in the race today and it just feels really good to take this win home for the team, after a tough few weekends. Thank you to the whole team at the track and back home in Italy for their hard work and dedication. Let’s try to stay on this path to keep bringing home results like this together."
Lewis Hamilton, P3
"Congratulations to the team, and congratulations to Charles, who did a fantastic job today. Of course, I wish we’d been able to secure a one-two finish for the team, but it's still a really positive result and another important step in the right direction. We'll take the positives from this weekend and keep pushing hard in the races to come."
Fred Vasseur, Team Principal
"This is a mega-positive result for the team, especially as we came to Silverstone expecting quite a challenging race. Here at the track and back in the factory, everyone did a very good job to close the gap to those ahead, Charles was able to stay in front and in the end we finished P1 and P3. I am particularly pleased for Charles as he had to deal with some challenges these last few weeks: here at Silverstone he was able to regain his confidence in the car and was immediately rewarded with this result. As for Lewis, he dropped to third with the Safety Car: I think stopping him was the right decision as we were quite sure the race would have been restarted and with the Soft tyres it would have been quite easy for him to overtake Russell."
