Quotes
"It has been an incredible weekend right from the start," Sainz Jr said after winning the 2023 Singapore Grand Prix.
"The team deserves this win for the enormous work they have done both here and in Maranello and I’m proud to dedicate it to all of them and the tifosi. We executed the weekend perfectly on my side and I think we managed the final thrilling part to perfection, giving Lando (Norris) DRS and controlling the pace all race long.
"Of course, pitting earlier meant we had to make our tyres last for a longer stint and the final laps were on the limit, but I’m extremely happy we made it work. Tonight we celebrate, but from tomorrow we’ll start preparing Suzuka. Let’s keep it up."
