Christian Horner, Red Bull Team Principal says, “What a great race, an exciting last few laps and we just had enough to bring it home. It was a patient race for Max, he looked after his tyres. Such bad luck for Checo, Safety Car at the wrong time, you can’t do anything about that. He’s driven brilliantly all weekend, he’ll take a lot of confidence forward.”

CARLOS: “For me the race was a bit of progress from Bahrain. I managed to find a bit more rhythm with the car. Still some tenths to find but I think I will end up getting there” #SaudiArabianGP #F1 pic.twitter.com/uKyqJAColo

Carlos Sainz says, “I think Perez got unlucky with the Safety Car but rules are rules. After that, it was all about holding on to P3. For me this race was progress from Bahrain, I found more rhythm with the car, still some tenths to find but I’ll get there.”
CHARLES: “It wasn’t enough today, but oh my god, I really enjoyed that race! It’s hard racing but it’s fair, every race should be like this. It was fun, I’m obviously disappointed, I wanted to win today”#SaudiArabianGP #F1 pic.twitter.com/TeahMuxPjs

Charles Leclerc says, “It wasn’t enough today but oh my god, I really enjoyed that race! It was hard racing but fair, every race should be like this. We are in a street track, we’ve been pushing like I’ve rarely pushed before, so there is respect, but I’m also a little disappointed.”
MAX: “We were battling hard at the front. It was tough. I’m really happy we’ve finally kick-started the season”#SaudiArabianGP #F1 pic.twitter.com/DAQVv5wD4j
