Austria: Building on the Momentum

We've made some positive progress over the past few races and the plan is to keep that momentum going this weekend in Austria.

It's also the second Sprint weekend of the season and this time, we're racing on a more traditional circuit, so we're intrigued to see how we get on.

"There were plenty of positives to take from the last race in Canada," said Toto.

"Although we didn't get both cars to the chequered flag, a podium was a solid result and we saw encouraging signs from our updated package.

"Austria is always a special weekend, as it's my home race and I have good memories from the track; both with the team but also from my early years racing there and teaching as an instructor.

"It's also the second Sprint of the season so it will be interesting to see the impact it has on the weekend, at a more traditional circuit.

"It's a short lap in Spielberg and looks straightforward on paper; several long straights broken up by a range of slow, medium-speed and fast corners. But it's a challenging one to put together and get right.

"We will aim to build on the momentum we have generated over the past two races and continue our positive trajectory with the car.

"It's a venue where the W14 should perform better than in Canada, but we won't take anything for granted. As always, we will be working hard to maximise our performance and deliver strong results."
