QUOTES:

"A good Sunday and a good  weekend overall. It was a tough race, just as we expected. It was tougher than  Qualifying because, with no DRS and no slipstream, we lacked Top Speed. But we  gave it all and I managed to put the car as high as possible on the standings".

"This weekend is really  important because we were ahead of faster rivals for quite a long time. Today  it was more difficult, but I am happy still because there was nothing left. I  found myself with the car after the weekend we had in Belgium, I felt more  comfortable and we were able to walk away with yet another Q3 and more points. I  am happy that I scored points in Monza. Now we will go to Singapore, another  circuit I really like. It brings back some good memories".
