Sauber boss Frederic Vasseur has expressed his delight with his team's performance and result this weekend following their return to the top ten.

Future Ferrari driver, Charles Leclerc managed a ninth place finish for Alfa Romeo Sauber.

Vasseur was very happy with the way his team improved over the weekend following a tough start to the weekend.

Marcus Ericsson, like Leclerc, drove well on Sunday - but could only manage 11th at the chequered flag.

With only six races left on this season's Formula One calendar; Vasseur has urged his Sauber side to give everything they have to try and finish as strong as possible.

"We are satisfied with our result today," Vasseur told The Checkered Flag. "After a tricky start to the weekend, we recovered well and qualified in decent positions.

"Our strategy was good and both drivers gave a strong and consistent performance in a very demanding race. Charles finished in P9 adding two more points to our tally, and Marcus was also close to finishing in the top ten.

"We have to stay focused and continue improving this way, and I look forward to the next Grand Prix in Russia."
