Carlos Sainz: It's encouraging to be P7 in Sprint qualifying, especially with the little track action I've had today after missing most of FP1.
Considering the circumstances, I'm happy with my laps on both compounds and I'll do my best to grab some points in the Sprint race. We'll also take the learnings for tomorrow's main qualifying and hopefully we can repeat or improve today's result.
Alex Albon: We thought SQ3 was on the cards today but to have both cars through was nice. We struggled a bit still and didn't feel as comfortable compared to practice, but nevertheless, a nice surprise. We're starting the Sprint on the clean side of the grid, so we want to keep it tidy and with points on the table let's see what we can do tomorrow.
