Lance Stroll, Aston Martin Aramco F1® driver, said:

“It was a tricky race out there today, but we managed it well and picked up a decent load of points for the team. I had a good start and got [Nico] Hulkenberg off the line.

“Then the rain started a few laps in and we stopped for the intermediate tyres. It's always a challenge to judge how long you can survive on the dry compound – you don't want to leave it too late and end up in the barriers - but I think we made that call well.

"It's good to end this triple header with a more competitive weekend; it's a big uplift for the team and we'll look to take that momentum into Hungary.”
