Piastri on pole, Norris alongside him – who leads out of turn 1?!

“We both want to win and attack, we both know rule number one.”

“It’s very hot today, we’ll try our best.

“We’ll just see how it goes.”

“It’s hot, I’m roasting! Looking forward to the race. My first grand prix. Few English guys doing well this year.”

“I love Lando, he’s got a great chance to win the championship, hope he can get on the front.

On Lando’s season: “It’s all about preparation, it’s just about going out there and being free.”

“It’s definitely toasty out there, we’re in a good place.

On turn 1: “Try and keep the lead.”

Two Spanish drivers – Alonso and Sainz – standing proud on the Barcelona grid as the national anthem is belted out in Catalunya!

The Anthem of Catalonia closely follows!

“We did the longest run in FP2, got a good idea what the tyres are going to do but we’ll see how everyone else will come out.”
