Kimi Antonelli after claiming pole:

“An amazing day to be on pole again. Super happy with the recovery, it was a good quali, the first lap was good enough.

“I was very stressed, I was just waiting for everyone to finish their laps, very happy with that. Hopefully the magic one [start] will come tomorrow, hopefully won’t lose any positions.

“We’re maximising the performance, so very happy with that.”
