<\/a>F1 constructor standings ahead of race:<\/p>\n 1. McLaren – 721 points (champions)<\/p>\n 6. Racing Bulls – 72 points<\/p>\n 7. Aston Martin – 72 points<\/p>\n Kieran Jackson9 November 2025 05:00<\/p>\n <\/a>Gabriel Bortoleto, after his crash:<\/p>\n “I was lucky and blessed to get away unharmed from my incident today; it was a huge crash, but I\u2019m here standing on my own feet, and that shows not only how well these cars are built nowadays, but also the progress we have made through the years in terms of safety. <\/p>\n \u201cI would like to thank our mechanics, who did everything they could to get me back on track for Qualifying. They worked super hard to rebuild my car from zero, and we almost made it in time. Obviously, I can’t avoid being a bit disappointed not to have made it to quali at my first home Grand Prix \u2013 that\u2019s a shame, because I really feel like our car was competitive enough to build something this weekend, as shown by Nico making it into Q3. <\/p>\n \u201cBut there\u2019s still a race to do tomorrow. I just want to sit in the car, drive, give my best, and enjoy my time out there.” <\/p>\n Kieran Jackson8 November 2025 23:59<\/p>\n <\/a>McLaren team principal Andrea Stella:<\/p>\n “A positive day overall, even if we do have one regret. Lando continued his excellent weekend, first winning a very complicated Sprint given the track conditions and then taking Pole position in a Qualifying session where the wind made conditions tricky. The regret is linked to Oscar missing points in the Sprint, after demonstrating strong pace, but he has already put that behind him in Qualifying and will be pushing hard in the race. <\/p>\n “Tomorrow, it will be important to execute everything perfectly: strategy, pit stops, tyre management and all the changes in weather conditions that may occur. <\/p>\n \u201cToday, we saw once again that there is a very tight competition and let\u2019s not forget that on this track everything can happen: last year\u2019s race winner started from 17th position on the grid. So, we will have to pay attention to every detail and stay focused at all times to exploit the potential we have at our disposal.”<\/p>\n Kieran Jackson8 November 2025 23:00<\/p>\n <\/a>Lewis Hamilton, who could only qualify 13th:<\/p>\n On car: \u201cIt\u2019s just the way we had it today.\u201d<\/p>\n On race – can you improve?: \u201cNot from where I am.\u201d <\/p>\n Kieran Jackson8 November 2025 22:00<\/p>\n <\/a>Charles Leclerc, who qualified third:<\/p>\n “Very good laps in Q2 and Q3 but everything is so close that it goes from being a disaster of a weekend to a really good weekend in a matter of a few hundredths.<\/p>\n “Happy I could put everything together in Q2 and Q3 and that was crucial for us because it was very on the limit.<\/p>\n “And P3, I’m satisfied with that because it’s been a difficult weekend for us.<\/p>\n Kieran Jackson8 November 2025 21:00<\/p>\n <\/a>Antonelli ‘annoyed’ to be behind Norris again in P2<\/p>\n “I am a bit annoyed that I am again behind him [Norris]. We were so close this morning. It was a very tricky session with the wind, very tricky to put a lap together, but still managed to put a decent lap in the last run and happy with that. <\/p>\n \u201cStarting P2 tomorrow, they are very fast, and it is important to get a good start and set a good pace.”<\/p>\n Kieran Jackson8 November 2025 20:15<\/p>\n <\/a>Oscar Piastri, who qualified fourth on the grid:<\/p>\n \u201cI couldn\u2019t go any faster, very different conditions from yesterday, everything felt much trickier. <\/p>\n \u201cBit disappointing with the result but the car\u2019s looked quick over a longer run, hopefully I can take advantage tomorrow. <\/p>\n On Sunday\u2019s race: \u201cIf I can make progress forwards and put some pressure on [Norris], I will.\u201d<\/p>\n Kieran Jackson8 November 2025 19:45<\/p>\n![\"Gabriel](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Screenshot-2025-11-08-at-15-27-21.png\")
