Berman: It's a pity that Zandvoort is hosting F1 for the last time.
The summer break in Formula 1 is over. The Haas press service was the first to publish the traditional preview for the Dutch Grand Prix with quotes from drivers Oliver Berman and Esteban Ocon, as well as team principal Ayo Komatsu.
Ayo Komatsu: "We are looking forward to returning to racing this weekend in Zandvoort. There is always an incredible atmosphere at this track thanks to the passionate Dutch fans.
It’s no secret that before the summer break the team went through a tough series of races, so the pause came at the right time. The whole team had the opportunity to rest and recharge before the second half of the season.
We are starting with a round that will take place in a Saturday sprint format, so we need to work as efficiently as possible from the very beginning, as we will have only one practice session.
There are many challenging tasks to solve at the Zandvoort track, but I am curious to see what shape we return in and how the team will handle the task after the break."
Oliver Berman: "We are back on track. The recent break was very timely for both the team and me. It was great to spend time with family and friends, turn off my phone, and focus on my own things.
In the second half of the season, my main goal is to perform my job as well as possible and work cohesively with the team to achieve the best possible results.
I love Zandvoort, and it’s a shame that this round is included in the Formula 1 calendar for the last time. There is an incredible atmosphere here, the Dutch fans always create a special mood, and the track itself is unique. I can’t wait to get back behind the wheel."
Esteban Ocon: "It was great to spend the summer break with family and friends and take a little rest. It was important for all of us to take this chance to recharge before the intense second half of the season.
Now we are ready to get back on track. Let’s see what results the team can achieve. Zandvoort is a great track to start the second half of the season. The fans always create an incredible atmosphere, and the track itself is very interesting to drive.
In the first half of the season, we faced a number of problems, so now we want to maintain the stability we managed to show in Hungary. Since we have a weekend with a sprint ahead, we need to make the most of every session and push the car to the limit from the very start."
