Lowdon on Cadillac's readiness for future engine regulation changes
Cadillac team principal Graeme Lowdon said the team “has to be ready for whatever’s thrown at us” amid uncertainty over Formula 1’s future engine direction, after FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem indicated he wants a return to normally aspirated V8s by 2031 at the latest. Graeme Lowdon said: "To a large extent, we've had to be ready to react to anything. All of that said, typically, regulatory stability is one of the things that leads to close racing... in a basic summary, I would say: we have to be ready for whatever's thrown at us. This is a competition, and we respect the regulations, and whatever form those regulations take, we have to cater for that."

Hamilton on Ferrari's power deficit to Mercedes at Monaco
Lewis Hamilton says Ferrari are “massively down” on Mercedes for power but believes the Monaco Grand Prix could still give him a chance because it is a track where power is less decisive. Hamilton said: “That’s [Monaco] the one track that power is not king. I think that’s definitely [dependent on pure] car performance. I think our car could be really strong there. And if you take away the power deficit, we’re in the fight with these guys, but unfortunately that’s not the way it is today. So that’s how much grunt that they have and we’re massively down.”

Binotto on Audi's chassis ranking in first works season
Mattia Binotto says Audi already has the fourth-best chassis on the grid in its first season as a works outfit, based on the team’s analysis and discussions with its drivers. Mattia Binotto said: "I'm very pleased by the chassis. Even discussing that with drivers, not only GPS telemetry analysis. First, we got a good correlation with the wind tunnel and the simulator. But, I think our car is pretty fast in the corners. We believe that maybe we're even the fourth team in terms of chassis, which as an ex-Sauber, it's an outstanding result."

Stella on McLaren dropping new front wing after practice
McLaren team principal Andrea Stella said the team dropped its new front wing after first practice at the Canadian Grand Prix because it showed an aerodynamic “deviation” and early data suggested it would not be a “game changer” in Montreal, so McLaren wanted more testing before committing to it. Stella said: "We knew that this front wing had some element of deviation from an aerodynamic point of view. So we've tested the wing. We want to repeat some testing and gain some further information. And also for this kind of circuit, the wing would have been better, but it wouldn't have been a game changer. So before we adopted [it] in a sprint event, we wanted to be just more reassured that we understand the full extent of the changes we're making on the car."

Allison on Mercedes facing intense development race from Monaco run
Mercedes technical director James Allison says the run of six races in eight weeks starting with Monaco will “test” the team because of how quickly performance can change under the 2026 rules. Allison said: "After Monaco [there is] an intense period of six races in just eight weeks. This is an unusual season from a development race point of view - the development rate is really steep, something like a quarter of a second a month. So it's really important for us that we're able to keep performance coming to the car in this next batch of six races."

Ben Sulayem pushes for V8 return
FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem has reiterated his push to bring V8 engines back to Formula 1, saying the next power unit should be “simpler, lighter, safer, louder” and less reliant on battery power. In an Instagram post, he wrote: “I am committed to bringing V8s back to Formula 1”, adding: “Ideally by 2030, but certainly by 2031 as part of the next FIA regulations cycle.” Ben Sulayem also argued V8s would mean “very, very minor electrification” and “reduced battery dependency”.

Russell on teaming up with Verstappen in future
George Russell says he would be willing to team up with Max Verstappen in future, either as Formula 1 team-mates or by sharing a seat in another category, despite their uneasy relationship after a public war of words in late 2024. Russell said: "Never say never. Who knows? As I said, never say never. Max is obviously one of the best. I was asked a lot last year about being teammates with him, but more in Formula 1 rather than sharing a seat. I'm up for it and would relish the opportunity to always go against the best. As any driver, you want to go head to head with the best."

Palmer on Red Bull's Monaco set-up change
Former F1 driver Jolyon Palmer says Red Bull’s only “saving grace” heading into the Monaco Grand Prix is the compliance they found with a set-up change between the Sprint and qualifying. Palmer said: "The only saving grace for Red Bull I saw was the change they made from the Sprint to qualifying, where they found a good chunk of compliance. Looking through the sector times, Max and Isack were really quick in the first sector, so that's the only hope I could see for him, and maybe they did find something there that brought them closer towards the picture at the front."
