Norris: Melbourne job suits us better

McLaren happy with Melbourne qualifying results…

Lando Norris (4th): “In Bahrain we barely made it through the first part of qualifying, in Saudi Arabia we didn’t make it to the final and today we were quite high. We’ve made some progress, but the main reason is that this track suits us more than our rivals.

Mercedes racers start behind me. It’s been a long time since George Russell and I fought in Formula 2. I look forward to continuing. Hopefully we can compete with Mercedes in several races this year, but usually they have a higher race pace. But today we were fast, I hope tomorrow will be.

Daniel Riccardo (7th): “Overall I’m happy with how this weekend is going. The only mistake I made was on the last fast lap when I couldn’t get the most out of the new set of tires and was almost a second slower than before.

There are several fast cars around us on the grid, but Mercedes racers are starting in front of me, this team is not in the best shape yet – I hope we can compete with them. I’m sure tomorrow will be fine.”
