Lewis Hamilton (1st, 1:18.170): “It’s been a good start to the weekend, the track is awesome and our balance is similar to what we had in the last race. It looks close but I think we’ve got good pace – we understand the car and know which direction we need to go balance-wise. Max Verstappen (9th, 1:18.785): “Overall I think we actually had quite a good day and the car seems pretty competitive. As a team, we made a good step from FP1 to FP2 and I felt that in the car. So far, I’m driving a lot better and feel I am in a good place with the car, so I’m quite happy. Pierre Gasly (6th, 1:18.593): “I think overall FP2 was a good session for us, to finish sixth shows the car is strong.
