Carlos Sainz: "It's impossible to predict the race result in Baku; surprises can always happen on this track. We have been working hard on assessing tyre behaviour in different conditions on our car — we'll see how this work affects qualifying. We know we have the pace; now we need to extract the maximum."
Alex Albon: "We arrive in Baku in good spirits after a strong showing in Monza. I enjoy racing in Baku — on this track you need to build up speed gradually to be well prepared for qualifying. There are good overtaking opportunities in Baku, so our plan is to make the most of both Saturday and Sunday while continuing to fight for fifth place in the championship."
