But we did what we had to do and I guess we went into the testing with a goal of achieving 800 km a day, we didn’t actually think we were going to do it so perhaps in hindsight we would have shifted our running. But at the end of the day, it suited us perfectly.

It’s just that we’re getting old. We’re good at our jobs, and we know it.

I am just aware that there is most likely going to be at least one 10 place penalty in the future because I have got one more reprimand to go, when I was in karting there was one steward, he was just there to make everyone's weekend a bad weekend. Families would turn up and spend so much money to be there... and he was just there to ruin people's weekends.

I ’m running out of engines. That’s in my mind.

It sounds cool. But beyond that it's not my focus, it's great stuff but I just enjoy winning and I enjoyed winning today.

There was plenty going through my head after China, as you'd expect. But, after all these years, experience has taught me to stay calm and keep pushing forwards when I get knocked back.

Two separate incidents, both equally painful -- perhaps today more painful, we still managed to get the car up there and get some points.

Usually there is a guy standing there telling you which way to go and basically there was nobody there, or the guy that was there was not looking anywhere, so I thought perhaps I could go in front of the group, i pulled up ahead of them and no-one was there. I was on the blue area where we take a photo at the end so I just reversed a bit and stopped.

I think this year the whole pack looks a bit closer. I think they have something up their sleeve this weekend, i think they have a lot more than they are talking. They have arrived on the low, but are going to deliver high.

I would probably say the first two, i don't want to say too much about it, but I do agree with the first two.

Please no! This is the worst looking mod (modification) in Formula One history, i appreciate the quest for safety but this is Formula One and the way it is now is perfectly fine.

It was fine, it was okay. Why confuse people more. by Lewis Hamilton

It was fine, it was okay. Why confuse people more.

Niki told me about the day he just didn't enjoy it any more. Until that happens then I guess Lewis Hamilton'll keep going, whilst I got this championship, I really don't feel that's it, I feel like it's just the beginning. So I'm just going to keep pushing.

To come here, where I used to love watching Ayrton drive, and match his career wins, is amazing for me, it was important for us to strike back. We didn't bring our 'A' game in Singapore and we had to bring it today.

I can't tell you what the team have come up with but they have come up with a lot of solutions, a lot of reasons for it being the way it was, the majority of them believe that at least one of the many reasons they came up with had a domino effect. So I'm confident that it's been understood but they will still continue to do analysis for sure.

The car broke down... and I didn't lose a huge amount of points to the guy who's right behind me. It could have been a lot worse, so I'm looking at the glass half-full.

I don't like it, it made the track worse, the track was fine the way it was before.

I feel seriously strong now, with the way I'm driving, this weekend is the best I've driven. I'm really, really happy with how I'm driving.

It doesn't look like a McLaren, it feels very weird when you look at the board and you think of this historic team, which is fighting with Marussia. And Marussia is relatively close on maybe a third of the budget or whatever. Maybe an eighth.

There is only one way for them, which is a good thing, it can only better. I'm sure they are working as hard as they can.

I did it just because I can, i am very much in an experimental phase in my life, experimenting with lots of things. The hair color is short term. When I first saw it... it kind of frightened me a little bit.
