Duane: I was able to attack throughout qualifying.

      In Miami, Jack Duane will start above his teammate for the first time this season in the main race of the weekend. In Saturday's qualifying, the Australian Alpine rider reached the second part, where he showed the fourteenth time. For Pierre Gasly, the fight for positions at the start ended in the first session.

      Jack Duane (14th): "Saturday's qualifying was better. Of course, it would have been great if I could have reached the final, but I felt that the car was in the operating range, so I could attack throughout the session.

      We had a fairly high pace in the first session, and I was particularly good at the first sector. Given such a density of results, any little thing could affect the final position. The team and I will analyze everything to understand what result is possible in the race.

      According to the weather forecast, it may rain on Sunday, so we will try to use every opportunity that may present itself. The goal for the race is to hold the position and try to break through to the top."

      Pierre Gasly (18th): "I didn't expect this result in qualifying. The team adjusted the settings before the session to make the car better, but we weren't fast enough.

      We need to analyze each round in order to understand in which areas we did not work well enough. We need to pay attention to the details, because this weekend the car feels different from the previous weekend.

      In addition, in the last attempt, I got into serious traffic in the first sector. Otherwise, I drove clean laps, but we weren't fast enough.

      It's good that I managed to score one point in the sprint – after several riders were fined, I moved up to eighth place. Now, together with the team, we need to prepare for the race."
