Lando Norris after qualifying on pole:
“Big congrats to the team, amazing job to continue, to start with a 1-2 but it’s just quali – it will be a tricky race but it was the perfect race to start.
“The car is extremely quick, when you put it together it’s unbelievable, little fight between me and Oscar and it was a tough one. You need to take a lot of risk but also get the lap clean, difficult mindset in the final lap but managed to pull it off.
“I’m never going to get ahead of myself, I’m not that kind of guy. We know how quick Max and Red Bull are in the rain, a lot of opportunities for everyone. We’ll see tomorrow.”

“Great to have the team on the front row, it’s the start of the season, it’s a solid start.
“Maybe left a little bit on the table, it was tricky out there for everyone – just happy to be on the front row.”

Max Verstappen, after qualifying P3:
