Max Verstappen: "Austria was a great race for us and it felt good to be finally fighting for the win again. P2 was a solid result and we found good pace and it was nice to be battling on track as well.

"Now we are straight on to the next race of the double header. I love the track at Silverstone and it has a lot of history. I think it will feel quite different and more challenging, especially with the energy deployment in this track. Because of the layout and the high speed corners it could be a tougher race, but it looks like it will be warmer than expected so we will see. It is nice for the Team to be closer to home and it is always a busy one with a lot of things happening in the week."

Isack Hadjar: "As a Team, we can be happy with how we performed in Austria. We came into last week with a lot of upgrades, so it was a weekend of learning, but ultimately a positive one, with solid points scored once again. We now head straight to Silverstone, where I want to put the whole weekend together. The conditions will be cooler, but the track doesn't suit us as much, so we'll need to extract as much performance as we can. I've been able to stay at home this week, which has been nice, as it's given me those extra comforts leading into what is always a busy week."
