Kimi Räikkönen (car number 7):
Alfa Romeo Racing C38 (Chassis 03/Ferrari)
Result: 15th
Fastest lap: 1:15.442
Tyres: New Medium (6 laps) – New Hard (52 laps) – New Soft (11 laps)
“Not an easy weekend, not an easy race, as we didn’t have the speed to fight for position. Some laps it felt better, then there were laps where we struggled to find grip. We have work to do and we also will get new parts and this should help us to get back into the fight for points.”
kimi：“不是一个容易的周末，也不是一场容易的比赛，我们没速度去提升位置。有些圈感觉不错，然后接下来几圈就挣扎于抓地力了。我们还有工作要做，还将会拿到一些新部件，这应该能帮助我们为积分而战。”
Frédéric Vasseur, Team Principal Alfa Romeo Racing and CEO Sauber Motorsport AG:
“After being very close to getting into Q3 yesterday, we were convinced we could have a good race performance. However, an unscheduled stop for Kimi due to a visor strip – not his own, this time – in his brake duct and Antonio suffering contact in lap one prevented us from competing against the rest of the midfield. We are working hard to understand the performance of the tyres and we’ll make the most of the developments we have lined up for the next few races. I am confident we can recover the speed we showed earlier in the season and get back in the fight for points.”
领队：“昨天很接近于进入Q3，我们曾相信能有个良好的比赛表现。但，Kimi因为一个护目镜膜堵了刹车而提前进站——这次不是他自己的护目镜膜，......让我们无法对抗其他的中游车队。我们在努力理解轮胎表现，我们将会为接下来的几站整合出最好的研发成果。我有信心能重拾赛季早期的速度，并能为积分而战。”
