  7. 'I was protecting my line'published at 15:09 British Summer Time 27 August 2017

    Sergio Perez, speaking to Channel 4: "I had no idea. I didn't select the right start mode so I had 50% of power. Then everyone overtook me.

    "The one at the start was 100% my fault. But the second, I didn't do anything different to any other driver would.

    "I think he feels the first one he thinks I did on purpose. I apologise for that one. The second one, it was not my fault. I was protecting my line. Tension started when he put me in the wall [back in Azerbaijan]. "

  8. 'He was risking lives'published at 15:07 British Summer Time 27 August 2017

    Esteban Ocon, speaking to Channel 4: "Of course he knew I was there. I can accept the first one - perhaps he couldn't see me but the second one was ridiculous. He was risking our lives. He risked my life.

    "Secondly we lost a lot of points. He is supposed to be a professional driver but he is not acting like it.

    "I am going to speak to him man to man but he is going to have a child - I don't know if he wants to die or something".

    Bottas got a bit mugged at the restart. He is out of it as far as his championship title chances go.

    He is basically a support role from here on in.

    Mercedes boss Toto Wolff: "Very good for his championship. Really brilliant. Lewis Hamilton's drive was really fantastic all weekend.

    "Bottas' restart was unfortunate. We need to go away and analyse properly. This is somewhere we should be doing better but the Ferraris are up there second with their championship driver still leading."
