Yonny Hernandez
The track conditions in FP1 were very much different compared with the ones we had during the tests here, and so I encountered some difficulties. We need to improve some aspects because it will be important to qualify well. Nonetheless, I feel confident.
Alessandro Zaccone
A positive day, we must work on some aspects because the conditions of the track have changed since the tests here. Fourth place in FP2, however, is more than a good result. Tomorrow we will try to do even better.
