Wolff: 3rd and 5th positions are quite a decent result

      At the end of Saturday, both Mercedes drivers were in the top five, and Toto Wolff was generally pleased with how his team qualified on a difficult and high-speed track in Jeddah. Although, as the team leader, he couldn't help but point out the mistakes he had made.…

      Toto Wolff: "Qualifying was exciting, even though we are closing in on the top three, and it would have been better the other way around. But we must admit that Max Verstappen did a great job.

      It seems that our car is now working more stably, and some foundation has been laid that needs to be developed. Kimi Antonelli scored 5th, but if he hadn't made a serious mistake in the first sector, he would have completed his lap a couple of tenths faster, which would have allowed him to move up to 4th position.

      But in general, the 3rd and 5th starting positions are quite a decent result. If we talk about tomorrow's race, then being realistic, I have to admit that McLaren is still in their league - in training we saw what pace they are capable of on long series of laps. However, it was the same in Bahrain, and there we were clearly less inferior to them. Anyway, let's see how tomorrow turns out."
