Carlos Sainz: We will return to the fight in the best shape
Williams failed to score points on a track that doesn't suit their car – without rivals' retirements and a safety car this weekend, they had no chance...
Carlos Sainz (14th): "We had an error-free weekend, it's just a pity it didn't coincide with a weekend when our car is competitive. The maximum I could aim for was 13th, but there was an incident with Gasly. We tried to do the race with one pit stop, but with a Soft - Hard combination, that was too optimistic.
I finish the first part of the season with some disappointment – we couldn't maximize our potential in the weekends when we were strong. I hope that in the second half of the season, it will be the opposite.
Big thanks to the team for their tremendous effort and to all our fans for their endless support. We'll rest, gather strength, and return to fight in the best shape."
Alex Albon (15th): "A tough weekend. This track doesn't suit our car; we're a bit vulnerable here. We encountered more problems during the race than I expected. Tracks with less downforce suit us better, while many rivals prefer the opposite.
Let's see how everything unfolds in the second half of the season. It'll be tough, but I will fight with all my might to keep our 5th place in the Constructors' Championship, and I'm sure Carlos feels the same. It will be a battle to the very end."
