Bottas delighted with victory Turkey

"It's been a while, it feels good," he said after the race. "I think from my side it was probably one of my best races. Apart from that one little slide, everything was under control. I felt very comfortable in the car and I had it well under control."

"As I said before the race, the car was good in all conditions. I'm happy that everything finally went well. It wasn't easy to come up with a strategy here. I had to concentrate the whole race.
