Alfa Romeo Racing Finnish driver Kimi Raikkonen, as well as Team Principal Frédéric Vasseur and Kimi’s teammate, Antonio Giovinazzi, preview the next round of the 2019 Formula One season, the Austrian Grand Prix
Frédéric Vasseur, Team Principal Alfa Romeo Racing and CEO Sauber Motorsport AG:
“Everyone is talking about the points scored for our Team in Le Castellet, but for me it was even more important to see how the team reacted to the streak of weak races. We picked ourselves up, we worked hard and we got the performance back into the car and that was exactly the spirit I wanted to see. Austria will be no different and that’s why I’m quite confident for both cars to score points. At least that’s our goal.”
Kimi Räikkönen (car number 7):
“What can I say? I enjoyed the race in France and I hope the one in Austria will be fun too. The upgrades seem to work, we understand car and tyres better and therefore I don’t see any reasons why we shouldn’t be able to score points again.”
Antonio Giovinazzi (car number 99):
“Going into the Spielberg weekend I would like to concentrate on the positives of the previous race. The pace in qualifying was great and it was good to feel the fighting spirit within the team to come back, to gain performance and finally score points as a team again. It’s true to my values of never giving up and I’m grateful to see that the team is helping me wherever they can in order to score my first points. Therefore I can’t wait to get in the car again in order to deliver.”
