More from Sainz on next year

"I feel like we have chances. Red Bull has been dominant but they've been without been clearly ahead on pace. I don't feel we're so far behind in car development and performance. I was on pole in Austin, we were 1-2. Our car is not that far from the Red Bull. In terms of pure performance, we're not far. We need a bit more power and downforce on the car."

Pierre Gasly on penalty points and potential ban

"It is unpleasant, delicate, in some ways embarrassing.

"I don't feel like I have been dangerous. It would be a harsh punishment.

"I want to do all the races, perform for Alpine. I could end up in 2023 with an amazing car fighting for the championship so I don't want to be banned for a race.

"I am discussing with the FIA to find a solution because the way the regulation is written is strict and harsh on the driver.

"A penalty would have massive repercussions.

"I hope for more discussions to avoid a silly situation of being banned for a race. It is not the correct approach."
