Da je Merc i dalje bolji to nije sporno, ali mozda ipak stvari nisu takve kakvima brojke sugeriraju:
"I'm pretty disappointed because I had a mistake and it cost us an easy second place, if not close to first," Raikkonen said. "But we tried and we still have a third place so it's not a disaster but obviously there was much more.
"On the previous run, on the same corner I went pretty deep - too deep - and in the last run I was quite a bit up on that lap and just ran wide at the hairpin and lost a lot of time. It's a shame, I think we had a chance to be on top today but that's how it goes and we try and make the best out of it tomorrow."
