Daniil Kvyat: "I am not sure where we're going to start from for the race, we'll see once all the penalties are applied. We need a good race tomorrow to try and make up some places. It's a long race and we have to keep pushing and fighting to move up the order. We will try and put ourselves in the points, it won't be easy at this track, but we'll make the most out of it. We'll see what we can do."

Daniel Ricciardo: "We had a new engine in the car this morning that lasted a handful of laps. I think the boys in the garage did the world's quickest engine change to get the car out for Q1. The previous best was about two hours and I think the boys have just done it in 1 hour and 40 minutes. To do one lap was already a victory - the boys are absolute legends. I think everyone cheered when I drove out of the box and I was pretty happy with the lap. We'll be starting from the back tomorrow and we'll try to make up some places. The positive aspect is I like overtaking and at this track you can do it, so I'm looking forward to the challenges tomorrow."

Christian Horner: "Despite all the penalties that we will be incurring this weekend, our grid positions were inevitable. The most rewarding thing about qualifying today was the astonishing effort from the crew in the garage that resulted in such a quick engine change. Both sides of the garage got stuck into it and it was teamwork at its best. Our biggest result today was seeing the team performing an engine change at that speed. Strategically we know we're going to be starting from the back of the grid so we've been setting our car up accordingly and hopefully we can make some progress tomorrow."
