Hear from McLaren Formula 1 drivers Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo as well as from team principal Andreas Seidl after qualifying for the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix.
LANDO NORRIS, # 4

“I’m really disappointed with the end of qualifying. Happy that we’re still P7 because it could have been worse today. I had a bit of bad luck with yellow flags throughout qualifying, but I could have been one or two “Positions higher as I didn’t do the best lap when I needed to, so I’m a little frustrated. I have a small advantage at the start with the soft tire, so I have to make the most of it, but for the rest of the race it will be a lot more difficult. I’m still in a good position to take a few points tomorrow so we’ll see what we can do. “

| Q1 | 1m28.216s (Switch) | 3. | |
| Q2 | 1m28.668s (Media) | 11th | |
| Q3 | – |
“We had a fast car, but I only suffered one damage in the last run and lost a lot of time. I damaged the ground on a curb and it dragged on the straight. I saw the lap time go down. It’s a shame because we were much faster than P11 today. I’ve used this curb many times, but this time it took a little damage. We made a good setup change for qualifying, so I felt good and had pace, we were just unlucky. “

“P7 and P11 in today’s qualifying. We had a fast car today, but unfortunately we weren’t able to maximize the qualifying result. Daniel suffered severe ground damage when he drove over a curb in Q2, which did not allow him to get into Q3. Lando was unlucky with yellow flags in Q2, which then prompted us to switch to the soft tires for the second run to make sure we get through to Q3. Unfortunately, this meant that he only had one set of new softs for Q3, which detracted from the result for him. We should have a competitive car in the race tomorrow, let’s make up a few positions. “
