"It was a really good, productive session.

"We tried some different things with the setup of the AMR25 and everything went smoothly.

"I drove here last year in the post-season test, so I had some good reference points and I felt I got up to speed quickly."

"With only one session today, we quickly had to learn how the car felt, and everything was as expected.

"The circuit is tricky to balance, but we will continue to work throughout the weekend and try to secure some points.

"It was also great to see Jak and Cian in the car this morning, learning while also gathering valuable data for the team."

"Today was all about getting into the rhythm at Yas Marina Circuit and building confidence with the car.

"The car felt okay in Free Practice Two, but we have a few things to work on over night and some areas we can improve on, and then we'll see how competitive we can be tomorrow."

[["I'm extremely happy to finish Qualifying in P6. I am surprised by such a strong result on a circuit with so many low-speed corners, but it is clear the setup changes we made overnight worked well.

"Free Practice Two was difficult for us. The car wasn't in the window, and the team did a lot of changes overnight. In Free Practice Three and Qualifying it was much better.

"We were brave with the setup, the team never stopped pushing, and we got a very nice result. So a happy Saturday and we hope for a happy Sunday."]]

"It was a super tight Qualifying today and we were looking good for Q3, but missed it in the end by less than one tenth.

"I had a bit of a messy Turn 14 and lost time there on my final push lap in Q2 so that's where it got away from us.

"When it's that tight, a small margin makes a big difference so a good effort today, but we would have hoped for a bit more."

"It was an exceptionally close field today in the Qualifying session.

"Lance progressed into Q2, delivering a series of clean laps and narrowly missing out on a spot in Q3 by less than a tenth of a second.

"Fernando, meanwhile, advanced to Q3 and put in a strong performance to secure P6. We hope this puts us in a good position to score points in the final race of the season tomorrow – we will aim to maximise every opportunity."

[["It is great to finish the season with a strong P6 here in Abu Dhabi.

"Our race pace hasn't always matched our qualifying recently, so a solid Sunday here feels very good.

"The team worked really hard in the last few months to achieve this final result, and now it's time to focus on 2026. There is not much break. Tomorrow, we are already at the factory, in the simulator, preparing for 2026. We are committed to a better year next year.

"It's been a challenging year, and I want to thank the whole team for their hard work all season.

"And congratulations to Lando on his first World Championship; it is a special moment for any young driver, and he deserves it."]]

"It was a fun race, with some great overtakes and good strategy by the team today, and it's nice to pick up a point at the final race at Yas Marina Circuit.

"In hindsight, we could've maybe pitted a lap or two earlier and finished even further up in the points.

"This year has been a tough one for the team, we haven't been as competitive as we wanted to be, so finishing this season with a positive result and P7 in the Constructors' Championship is good."

"Firstly, congratulations to McLaren and Lando for a well-deserved end to their season. For us, it was great to complete the final race of 2025 on a positive note, with a double-points finish.

"Fernando drove a great race, finishing in P6 and bringing home eight valuable points for the team. Lance also had an excellent race, managing the Hard tyre well and pulling off a series of decisive overtakes. He climbed six positions before a post-race time penalty dropped him to P10.

"We finish the season P7 in the Constructors' Championship. Thank you to the team trackside and everyone back at the AMR Technology Campus for your hard work and dedication this season. It hasn't always been easy, but we have never stopped pushing.

"As we now look to the 2026 season, I want to also take the time to say thank you to our friends and colleagues at Mercedes AMG HPP for supplying the team's PU over the past 17 years. Thank you for the collaboration that has shaped this chapter in our history.

"Thank you also to our fans for your unwavering support and passion, it means a lot to us all. We now turn all our focus on 2026, with the test in Barcelona next month."
