Valtteri Bottas: I'm more hungry than anyone else to win

After securing pole position for the Austrian Grand Prix, Valtteri Bottas has his sights on winning his first race of 2018.

The Finn edged out Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton by just 0.019s after setting two blistering laps in the final part of qualifying. Bottas has yet to win a race in 2018 and he's keen to make up for missed opportunities from earlier in the season.

"It's a small circuit, that's why we have such small gaps, but it's actually not an easy circuit to get right even though there are just seven proper corners,'' Bottas said after securing his first pole position of the season.
