Perez on Cadillac's reliability issues after Hungary retirement
Sergio Perez says Cadillac need to improve reliability after his retirement from the Hungarian Grand Prix with a broken suspension, as the new team continues to suffer a spate of DNFs. Perez said: "Obviously being a new team, you kind of expect all these issues. It's a little frustrating that it has happened very often. I'm sure that we will use this break to make sure we are able to clean and to improve all areas in different departments. It's really important how we are able to progress the second half of the season."

Albon on Williams' car weaknesses and planned Baku upgrade
Alex Albon says Williams is battling “genetic DNA problems” with its car and doubts the team’s planned Azerbaijan Grand Prix upgrade will be enough to quickly turn things around. Albon said: "We know the weaknesses of the car. We know the direction. As a team this year, the work that's been done at the factory, it's the biggest effort I've seen at the team to really fight these genetic DNA problems that this team has. So, if it's cured by Baku, I doubt it. A lot of what we're really fortunately biting into is next year's car. It's making sure next year's car doesn't have these traits."

Marko on why Verstappen cannot repeat his 2025 title charge
Former Red Bull motorsport adviser Helmut Marko says Max Verstappen cannot repeat last year's late-season title charge, as he believes Red Bull are not consistently quick enough and the competition is now too strong. Marko said: "They aren't consistently fast. Moreover, things don't seem to be going entirely smoothly between Max and the engineers. The competition from McLaren and Ferrari is too strong, and the car is too unstable."

Lawson on confronting Marko over F1 chance at Zandvoort
Liam Lawson says he confronted Red Bull motorsport adviser Helmut Marko at Zandvoort in 2023 by asking why he was not being given an F1 chance, and thinks it “pissed off” Marko before Lawson later got his opportunity that weekend. Lawson said: "I went into his office on Friday morning at Zandvoort and said 'Why won't you just give me a chance? You've invested all this money in me. What's the point? I've been in the programme for five years.' It got to the point where I think he got a little bit pissed off because he basically just shut me down. I left that meeting and I called my coach who was there and I was talking to him. 'This is pretty tough.'"
