Nico H\u00fclkenberg – 9th and 8th [7th on the grid]:<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00ab I’m happy to achieve another top 10, and it was a great effort from the whole team, especially considering our position last night. My lap in Q3 wasn’t too bad, but I was slightly hindered by a Williams in the last few corners, so maybe there was more to gain. Overall, I’m confident that we can have a good race because our pace on the long runs seemed competitive yesterday. There are a lot of unknowns for tomorrow because there’s no past data to help us, but we’re in good shape, and I’m really enjoying driving on this new track. \u00bb<\/p>\n
Paul di Resta – 16th and 13th:<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00ab It has been a difficult weekend so far and I’m still struggling to get the tires to work well. My driving is quite smooth so maybe that’s why I haven’t been able to heat them as well as Nico, who has a more aggressive approach. The good news is that starting 13th, I’m on the right side of the track so that should help me maximize the start. It’s a long race but I’m not really sure what to expect tomorrow. The car isn’t where I would like it to be so I need to make the most of it and hopefully we can use strategy to climb back up. \u00bb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Paul di Resta, suffering from the same problems, wasn’t as fortunate; the Scottish driver ended up in 13th place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":41222,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,1749],"tags":[73,92,1309],"class_list":["post-18147","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-f1","category-news","tag-austin","tag-bilan","tag-racing-point-f1-team"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
