Wehrlein happy to bring home a point for Sauber

Pascal Wehrlein says that he was delighted to cross the line in tenth place for Sauber in Baku. The result marks the second time this season that Wehrlein has finished inside the points, as he drove to eighth place in Spain earlier this season.

The weekend result was a nice surprise after the shock announcement that Monisha Kaltenborn had left the team over management issues: "I am happy with the 10th place. Making Q2 in qualifying yesterday, and scoring a point for the team today, has definitely been better than what we expected from this weekend.

"The race was defined by several interruptions, so we do have to stay realistic when it comes to our expectations for the next races. We have some improvements to make, and would not have been able to score under normal circumstances. Nonetheless, the 10th place is a great team effort. We gave all we had, and showed our dedication when it was most needed."
