The Ferrari driver returns to the events in Austin, and in Mexico reveals, “I have a toothache, I will drive on painkillers.”

The team explained the Spaniard’s absence from the press conference was due to a slight illness.

The federation put to rest the controversy that arose after the U.S. Grand Prix with an official note.

“I love the Arena, a little less the curves there.”

The team principal expects a lot not only from Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz.

“Charles Leclerc was pushed off the track, that’s too much. It was not necessary. I don’t understand why the first lap should be evaluated differently.”

“Winning a race? I think our best opportunities are gone.”

“We raised the car during free practice and thought we were okay, but evidently we chose a configuration that was too much on the limit.”

Despite the disqualification, the British driver does not hide his satisfaction with the W14’s improvements.

“The rules leave no room for doubt,” the Mercedes team principal admitted.

The two drivers were charged with a technical infraction.

“We cannot hide the fact that one stop was definitely the wrong choice.”

“I am very proud and will continue to push to try to improve even more.”

The World Champion also wins in Texas ahead of Hamilton and Norris.

“I think we could have done a better job. But I think it was important to get feedback with the two compounds.”

Third in the sprint, the Ferrarista is convinced he can play for victory in the U.S. GP.

The three-time world champion remains in the lead from start to finish in the short race of the U.S. Grand Prix and is ahead of Hamilton and the Ferrari of Leclerc, who was overtaken at the start by the Mercedes Briton.

Red Bull’s world champion at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin beats the Monegasque by 55 thousandths and Hamilton’s Mercedes by 69. Sixth is Sainz in the other Ferrari.

“It will be a fun Sunday, but I want to win,” admitted the three-time world champion.

The Asturian’s words toward his team after qualifying for the U.S. GP did not go unnoticed.

The Dutchman does 5 thousandths better than the Ferrarista but his time is deleted for exceeding track limits. 2nd Norris, 3rd Hamilton, 4th Sainz.

156 thousandths separate the Dutchman and the Monegasque in the only free practice session of the U.S. Grand Prix.

The former team principal commented on the potential of the Milton Keynes-based company in 2024.

“No crazy celebration, but it was good to come home.”

“We will focus on medium- to low-speed cornering, which has been lacking lately.”

“I had to recover mentally after Qatar, where I didn’t race.”

The Australian, after the accident in Zandvoort free practice, also missed Monza, Singapore, Suzuka and Lusail: in Austin he will return to occupy the AlphaTauri seat.

Including the Sprint races, as many as five races will be run in the next three weeks, which are crucial to the fight for second place in the World Constructors’ Championship.

The McLaren driver made an admission about the Doctor.

“The temperatures are predicted to be high, so I expect another tough race. I am also excited to see the new special fan-designed livery, it will look really good.”
