george russell after qualifying :
“my gut told me we could do it on lap one without the preparation. So we-but the team wanted to do the prep-so we ended up carrying the fuel for an extra lap. It's such a small number, but it's bigger than the gap to pole. So it's obviously... you always think retrospectively, if only we had the one lap of fuel rather than the extra lap of fuel like we had”
George Russell on Mexico GP qualifying and car struggles
George after qualifying "I am happy. It has been a tricky few races for me and I'm still struggling to get on top of this car, to be honest."
"It has been a very difficult weekend up until one lap in Q3, finding half a second to almost get pole position. Congrats to Lewis, it was obviously really close in the end"
"I always know the performance is in there but the hit rate is too low, so that is the frustration."
"The temperatures got cooler which played into our favour. It gave me a bit more confidence to get grip in the tyre."
“I’m relieved, because I’ve had a few difficult weekends.”
“I’m particularly pleased with this performance because I still don’t quite understand the upgraded Mercedes. And here in Mexico I was also struggling until Q3 came around and suddenly it all clicked.”
“The track temperature dropped as qualifying went on, which worked in my favour. I did a very quick warm-up lap; I suddenly felt a lot of confidence in the car – and then came a virtually flawless lap.”
“Out of nowhere, I somehow found nearly half a second and only just missed out on pole. Heartfelt congratulations to Lewis.”
“I’ve always known that I can compete at the very front again; I just need to manage to deliver that performance more consistently. I’m finding that very difficult at the moment, but I’m glad to be on the front row.”
