Race report (McLaren)

Andrea Stella: ‘The gap we were able to open in the first stint, before the Safety Cars, demonstrated both that the car is competitive, but also that it is gentle on the tyres. It’s meeting the objectives we have set for ourselves over the winter.’

Lawson and Dixon: From NZ to the world stage (Honda)

‘I was doing the Toyota Racing Series, it was my first season of it and going into those five weeks, I had no seat for the next year. I’d done one season of F4 in Germany and we had no plan. I couldn’t afford F3, there was one or two seats left and we didn’t have the money for it. So heading into that season I was like ‘we have to get something out of this!’ And after the first week we had a Red Bull contract.’

‘While a Formula 1 test might be off the table, it opens the door for a standalone weekend of car racing with a Supercars headliner as the likely way to make use of the Albert Park Circuit on the weekend before next year’s race.’

‘My commitment to climate is as strong as ever. I’m still pretty damn focused on making an impact at a large scale, removing huge volumes of emissions through active investments and philanthropy… and have the proud scars to prove it.’

‘Three days with American Express will set you back $5,850, while going as a paying guest of an F1 team costs an eye-watering $19,000 per person.’
