Quotes: Dieter Rencken
In the round-up: Sebastian Vettel isn’t a fan of the huge straights at the Baku City Circuit.
What they say
The drivers’ championship leader said yesterday he prefers the twisty bits in Baku:
The track is very nice with the exception of the straights, maybe they are a bit too long. But they’re part of the track, part of the track’s soul.
I like it, driving around the old town I think is quite challenging, it’s a good track.

The Dan Diaries: Keeping calm to carry on (Red Bull)
“I had this weird thing with my lip happen in Bahrain the weekend before where I bit it, and it must have got infected or something because I kept biting it over and over. So I had to get that taken out and stitched back up in London, so that – and a fair bit of talking about China – was basically the week after Shanghai. I got back to Monaco last Friday, where I could finally put my feet up.”
