Even the day before, Alex Albon complained that he is still not feeling 100% after the accident at Silverstone, and Williams’ mechanics had to fit the car for him overnight, in violation of the curfew rule, but he performed excellently in qualifying , with a 12th time .
Alex Albon (12th): “I am very satisfied! The team have done a great job restoring the car after the damage sustained at Silverstone, our base and track staff have done everything they can to make this happen and I am happy to thank them with 12th place.
I drive a modified car, it’s nice to see that our innovations have worked and that we have become faster. Hopefully we’ll be moving forward every weekend now.
Only the tenth was not enough to qualify for the final. In such a situation you always think about where you could go faster, but today I am very satisfied and hope to do better tomorrow.”
Nicholas Latific (19th): “The position and lap times leave a lot to be desired, but I felt good behind the wheel, which reinforced the feeling I had at Silverstone.
I made a mistake in the third corner, but given the increase in speed of the modified car, I should have lost a lot more of my partner. Nice to get a good speed in the second qualifying in a row.
The Austrian track isn’t quite right for our car, but I’m glad I was able to achieve better handling. Despite the lack of speed, I am optimistic about the sprint. I hope I get a chance to recover tomorrow.
