Bahrain Sunday quotes: Toro Rosso

Sebastian Vettel - Retired: "I had a really good start this time after not so good ones in the previous two races. I was off like a rocket and I was able to pass two or three cars. Then going into first corner, when I was in the inside, I was blocked. We were really tight and I collided with a Force India. My front wing was a bit damaged but this was not the main problem, which came in Turn Four when someone arriving from the inside hit me on the rear right, causing the big damage that forced me to retire. I do not know who he was and what he wanted to do. It's really disappointing as we could have had a good race, but we will try again next time."

Franz Tost, team principal: "Vettel got off the line well, but then had a collision at Turn 4 on the opening lap which meant his race was over. Bourdais drove a solid race, putting up quite a good performance. But when those ahead of us all finish we could not expect more. The team did a good job in that the car made it to the flag. The Spanish Grand Prix will be a tough weekend for us, but we are looking forward to testing our new car at the Barcelona test and then racing it in Istanbul."
