Santiago Urrutia, 1st: “Thank you to my team, and to Yann. We’re really happy with this weekend. In terms of the championship and especially because we have collected a lot of points for the Teams’ championship. We have worked so hard and capitalised everything, and Yann with the podiums has done a really good job. I have nothing to say about the championship, as we still go race-by-race and there’s a lot of races to go.”
Yann Ehrlacher, 2nd: “Well done to all the drivers, and well done to JK (Vernay) coming back after so many years. It’s great to see talented drivers come back in the championship. It was a good weekend for us, it was our biggest race of the season, and with important points for the team, and a good recovery for Santi in the drivers’ championship; he’s there in the fight for the title. We are still learning this car and we’re optimising everything we can, but I’m really happy with the weekend.”
Jean-Karl Vernay, 3rd: “It was a good race. I was a bit aggressive with the clutch at the start, so I took a lot of risk as I had the chance to overtake one of the Geely cars but it didn’t work. Later in the race I was behind them but with no pace, so I was just driving consistently but the guys were really strong. Thanks again to SP Compétition for the great work this weekend, and I’m getting happier every day competing behind the wheel.”
