Perez on confidence after Red Bull struggles
Sergio Perez says his confidence was hit by his struggles in his final period at Red Bull, but his performances since returning to the grid with Cadillac have convinced him his underlying speed was still there and that circumstances around him played a big part. Perez said: "When you struggle the way I struggled in my last period at Red Bull, it hurts your confidence. Then the last three, four races, the level of performance that I'm able to put – qualifying, race, race pace – makes me feel like the speed has been always. There are a lot of circumstances as a driver you cannot control. A lot of drivers go through it... but it's all about the circumstances around you."

Marko on Mercedes threat from Antonelli-Russell team-mate fight
Helmut Marko says Mercedes’ main threat could come from a fight between team-mates Kimi Antonelli and George Russell, rather than from rival teams. Marko said: "Although I find it very refreshing how the young Antonelli lets the car fly. But Russell is the experienced one, who will also strike back. That they tear each other apart in the process is the only hope. Otherwise Mercedes is gone."
Marko: Mercedes' biggest threat is in its own garage

Leclerc on not seriously considering leaving Ferrari
Charles Leclerc says he never seriously considered leaving Ferrari, even though he has had what he described as “natural” conversations with other teams, after Ferrari announced he will stay with them “for the coming” seasons. Charles Leclerc said: "I have never really evaluated alternatives. There have certainly been conversations, also because after ten years in this paddock, relationships are created that go beyond the simple professional sphere. Sometimes there are discussions that I consider natural, but I can confirm that these are issues that concern Nicolas much more than me. As far as I'm concerned, and I want to say it, what I wanted to do has always been very clear."

Krack on small step to address Alonso seat discomfort
Aston Martin chief trackside officer Mike Krack says the team has made a small step towards fixing Fernando Alonso’s seat discomfort ahead of the Monaco Grand Prix, but further tweaks may be needed after the issue forced Alonso to retire at the Canadian Grand Prix. Krack said: "We were here from Tuesday morning with Fernando, so a lot of work went into it on Tuesday, with a lot of variations. Now, the driving is the real test [because] we see it statically; it's not always the same. But I think we made a really small step in the right direction. He was mildly confident that this is going to be an improvement, but I would not be surprised if we have to do another tweak over the sessions to get him really comfortable."

Wolff on Russell not giving up in title fight
Toto Wolff says George Russell will “not give up” in the title fight after losing a potential big points haul when he suffered a Mercedes engine failure while leading the Canadian Grand Prix. Wolff said: "He was in the lead, but if there is one guy I would choose in this paddock in terms of resilience and determination, that would be George. He has had to overcome adversity previously, whether it is from karting on to junior formulas, and he is not going to give up in the fight. Honestly, there are 17 races to go, so many points to score, and he will digest, forget, move on, move forward and drive the best he can."
