Oliver Berman: Incredibly complicated weekend
On Saturday, the Haas F1 drivers did not shine, finishing qualifying below 15th place...
Oliver Berman (15th): "Incredibly challenging weekend. It felt like we made progress between the first and second practice sessions, but no – overnight we took a step back and the third practice didn't go well. In the end, we reverted to the baseline setup and I'm not sure we could have done more.
I was happy with my lap in the first part of qualifying, where we were a bit more competitive, but the competitors used only one set of tires, some two, while we used three. The second session went more smoothly, and I'm optimistic about the race. Yesterday we had a good race pace, so we should look better on Sunday."
Esteban Ocon (17th): "Today was supposed to go much better than it turned out. Tire issues got in the way. It's a shame we couldn't achieve more, but anything is possible tomorrow – we have a long race ahead with many pit stops, so we'll see what happens in the end."
