Wolff on Mercedes' self-inflicted points losses
Toto Wolff says Mercedes have “lost points through self-inflicted issues” and need to improve their execution, despite leading both championships heading into this weekend’s Hungarian Grand Prix. Wolff said: "We have shown at every race so far that the performance is there. We have not converted enough of that potential into results though. We have lost points through self-inflicted issues, and we know we need to improve. The team is working flat out to understand the problems, fix them, and ensure we are giving both drivers the tools they need to maximise every weekend."

Krack on Aston Martin's Hungarian Grand Prix upgrade readiness
Aston Martin trackside chief Mike Krack said the “$1 million question” for the team is whether it can get enough parts ready in time for its “2.0” upgrade package to run at this weekend’s Hungarian Grand Prix. Mike Krack said: "This is the $1 million question. Everybody is working flat out to get the parts, to get the cars ready. It is a big undertaking if you decide to do it like this, because you always try to push the deadlines as far as you can. So, it's a big effort going on at the AMRTC at the moment, and I'm a positive thinker, so I think we will have two cars ready to go. Now, I don't think we will have five spares of each, to be honest."

Leclerc on Ferrari caution over Hungarian Grand Prix prospects
Charles Leclerc urged Ferrari to stay cautious about its prospects at this weekend’s Hungarian Grand Prix, saying it is difficult to predict performance levels after the team’s recent strong results at Silverstone and Spa. Leclerc said: "We could be, but we could also not be, and we'll never know until we go there. I think it's very difficult to predict the level of performance of every team. I recall very well what the overall feeling was before Monaco, and we arrived in Monaco and were underperforming compared to what everybody thought we would. So, I think we need to be cautious."

Norris on power unit impact on qualifying pace
Lando Norris says a driver’s qualifying pace is increasingly being decided by factors outside their control because of how Formula 1’s current power units behave. Norris said: "There are certain things within your control and a lot of things, way too many things, that are out of your control. It's a shame that there are so many things that can dictate your own pace in qualifying. It's not down to the driver. It's just down to hoping you get lucky that the power unit does what it should do, and doesn't do something silly."

Hadjar on Belgian GP recovery drive to sixth
Red Bull driver Isack Hadjar said he was "not really surprised" by his own performance at the Belgian Grand Prix after recovering from 21st on the grid to finish sixth, having started at the back because of a 30-place grid penalty for exceeding his power unit allocation. Hadjar said: "It's not... I mean, surprising in a way that I didn't believe a track like this would suit us, but not really surprised in terms of my own performance and delivering a strong race pace finally with clean air. Silverstone was super frustrating for me, not being able to show the pace, and I was a bit in no man's land. Now, I think this was the most complete one I had, so keep pushing."

🏆 Every race this season has had a different combination of drivers on the podium, including 9 podiums that we've never seen before.
This is actually insane when you think about it.

🚨 History can be made in Hungary 🚨
At least 1 Mercedes-powered driver has been on the front row in 38 consecutive races, 1 short of tying Renault’s F1 record set from 1995 Italian GP to 1997 European GP 😳
Can anyone stop this from happening? 👀

Norris on McLaren making Belgian GP more difficult
Lando Norris said McLaren could not have made his Belgian Grand Prix “any more difficult” after it kept him out during a virtual safety car and he later had a 7.8-second stop, leaving him seventh. Norris said: "I lost 10 seconds because of that, and I lost another five or six or something in the pit stop. So it's 16 seconds that we just had added to my race time, which just makes my life incredibly tough and the fact I started P13. I don't think we could have made my race or could have made our race any more difficult today. I think the pace was good enough for a podium or even to win."

Mekies on Mercedes' straight-line and power unit advantage
Red Bull's Laurent Mekies said Mercedes have the most powerful power unit and a straight-line advantage, after Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff made the same claim following the Belgian Grand Prix. Mekies said: "I think Toto is right. I also think they have the most powerful power unit. Certainly they had a sizeable advantage on the straight this weekend again. But it's not the first weekend, they have an advantage on the straight most weekends. This weekend, it was a bit more with the track sensitivity."
