"In a few days there will be another race. Japan è always a unique event, with very passionate fans. The Suzuka è track is incredibly challenging and drivers love to race on this track.

The pace of the car è was high all weekend. We worked well as a team and really tried to win the Grand Prix. Lewis took the podium with a'very good race. He showed impressive pace throughout the GP, especially in the final stint. Third position è was a well-deserved reward for his efforts. For George, the performance è was flawless all weekend. He gave his all in the quest for victory. He made a small mistake on the last day and that hurts even more, but I know he will recover great" added Toto Wolff.
