“Points were the target today, and we achieved that: it’s nice to be back in the top ten as it had been a while, despite all our hard work, and this point is for everyone at Alfa Romeo. It may be just one point, but it is a good reward for the job done t...
"Today was a typical day at Spa; changeable conditions, with the forecast shifting constantly. That made it a real challenge. We also made changes to the car overnight but weren’t able to evaluate them in FP3 given the lack of running. Nevertheless, both drivers were competitive...
The British GP is the oldest of the lot, hosting the very first F1 race in 1950 and not missing a single year since, making this the 75th edition of the race (if you discount the extra 70th Anniversary edition of 2020… oh the irony). The race has moved around a lot of ...
Q: (Veljko Jukic – Auto Focus) Kimi, when we look at a race today, how of your concentration is spent on taking care of tyres, on fuel consumption and on pure racing? KR:Obviously it depends a lot on the conditions and the circuit that we’re on. Some circuits you have to do so...

long run on the soft tire, so we learned a great deal for Sunday which is really good information. Overnight, we’ll be looking at the specific corners we’re losing lap time in and improve the car a bit more so that Nico and Kevin can take more confidence into FP3 and qual...
“There are mixed feelings really because Kevin had potential. His feelings from FP3 were good, his first run in FP1 was good, and he felt he had a decent chunk of lap time in hand – which I believe. On his lap last, I don’t know what the McLaren was doing in the m...
"It was an underwhelming qualifying session today, particularly as we were only a few tenths off the fastest time in FP3. The conditions were different between the sessions, and we suffered from that. We have a car that is difficult and small changes can cause it to be outside of...
today with the track reaching 54 °C, theoretically at about the time of the middle of the race on Sunday. Such high temperatures could have a further impact on degradation. We have seen that the track is quicker than last year and it became even more so during the sessions, more...
