  • 2021 Bahrain Grand Prix – Sunday 28/03/2021
    2021 BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX – SUNDAY 28/03/2021 Yuki Tsunoda (AT02-06, Car 22) Race: Pos. 9th “I’m happy I managed to score points in my first Grand Prix – I think this race showed how great the performance of the car is. I have to say, I’m a bit disappointed still as I lost a few positions on the first lap – due to being too cautious – and had to work throughout the race to recover these. I’ve learnt a lot here in Bahrain, which is really positive, and I will take this with me to Imola. I had some strong overtakes during the race and, for me, overtaking Fernando was quite an emotional experience, he’s a Formula 1 superstar that I’ve grown up watching, so that was pretty exciting. I’m really proud of my performance and I’m looking forward to seeing how we do next time out.” Pierre Gasly (AT02-05, Car 10) Race: Pos. DNF “I’m obviously very disappointed right now because we’ve had a very strong weekend since we arrived. Starting from P5 I was hoping for some good points today, but my race was pretty much over after the contact with Daniel in lap one. I broke the front wing, I had floor damage and I was obviously very far behind after just one lap, so my race was almost finished from there. It’s a big shame because we’ve shown some good pace all weekend and we haven’t managed to get the rewards of that today, but I think there are still quite a lot of positives to take-away from this weekend and that’s what we’ll look at for Imola.” Franz Tost (Team Principal): “After a satisfying qualifying session yesterday, Pierre started today in fifth position and Yuki in 13th on the grid.
