Valtteri Bottas (1st, 1:17.940): “It’s been a good day today. The tyres are quite hard here so getting the single lap isn’t easy and the warm-up all day has been a real challenge but hopefully that will improve as the track grips improves. Today, what everybody needed was more running to get into a rhythm. I think overall it was a little frustrating today and we didn’t get a lot of good running done. The track grip was very low in the morning practice session, and the cars were sliding around quite a lot. Lance Stroll (19th, 1:20.983): “It was a tricky day because it wasn’t an easy track and it was very low grip.
