The Quotes
Charles Leclerc | “Seb probably shouldn’t have gone to the left and he knows it and I could have done a better job of avoiding him going to the left. What is important is everything is clear now and we move forward.”
Mattia Binotto | “We discussed together and I think that they understand what happened was not acceptable. We know how to move forward.”
Toto Wolff | “The underperformance in Brazil means we head to Abu Dhabi with a point to prove. Yas Marina has been a good circuit for us in the last years and we’ll push hard to continue in the same way.”
Claire Williams | “We look forward to [Nicholas Latifi] stepping up into this new role, as we look to fight our way back to the midfield.”
Lewis Hamilton | “There’s always room to improve and we’ve not been perfect all year, we’ve not won every single race and there are areas we can definitely round up and do better.”
