  • After a spin in Q3, Valtteri will start Sunday’s race from P6

Lewis Hamilton

I think we gave it everything today, so I’m not disappointed. The timing was right, our procedures were good and I did everything I could. Overall, I’m happy with the job we’ve done and it leaves us in a good position for the race. We had P1 for a short moment, but Ferrari were just quicker. Particularly in the last sector – they were four, five tenths faster on the straight. But, we knew they were going to be quick and that’s good, it’s what #racing should be. I’m glad I’ve been able to split the Ferraris today and tomorrow is going to be an interesting race. Hopefully we can put on a good show tomorrow.
