George Russell (5th, 1:22.386): “Bit of a strange day, FP1 was looking pretty strong but then Ferrari and Red Bull seemed to take a step forward in FP2 and we went a little backwards so we have work to do tonight to understand that. Max Verstappen (2nd, 1:21.807): “I think the car was pretty good today, we’ve been trying a few different things from FP1 to FP2. Some things worked and some didn’t, if you look at the long runs we look good and of course that’s most important for the race. Charles Leclerc (3rd, 1:21.857): “The feeling in the car was good. When I got in the car this afternoon, it was not the easiest session. He got straight into it and had a good session – did all the testing work we wanted him to do so we’re very happy with what he did.
