Ben Waterhouse, deputy technical director of Scuderia Toro Rosso, says after qualifying in Monaco: “We had hoped to get both cars into Q3 and that’s finally what we did, at least in terms of performance. Unfortunately Carlos missed the weigh bridge and he will now have to start from the pit lane, while in Max’s case, we are slightly disappointed as we feel there was more potential in the car and we haven’t managed to get the most of it today.”

Waterhouse continues: “However, considering it’s both Carlos and Max’s first time in a Formula 1 car here in Monaco, they have driven well this weekend. Looking forward to tomorrow, with Max we remain in a good position to achieve our main target of points. For Carlos, it will be a big challenge to finish in the top ten, however, this is Monaco and anything can happen, so we will prepare ourselves as well as possible hoping for a good result tomorrow.”
