A tough day ahead for Ferrari?

Sainz to Sky: "I'm confident we can at least have a bit of fun today. Looking forward the whole race and trying to gain some positions.

"At the same time it's going to be warm and hard on tyres. That's where we struggle a bit so we need to be thinking both ways."

Verstappen on Lap 1

"I think maybe Lap 1 peak grip is a bit higher but over a stint it doesn't matter a lot. It doesn't matter. It's a long race, a lot of things can happen. It's not a one-stop so with strategy a lot of things can play out."

Hamilton before the race

"Red Bull is half a second faster per lap than us on the race pace. So it's very, very likely [Max is] just going to breeze by and disappear like he has in all the races. If I can magically pull out the rabbit out of the hat, I will try to do that and keep him behind, but we'll see."
