Bendsneyder commences second half of 2018 in Czech Republic

For this weekends’ 10thround of 2018, which marks the beginning of the second part of the season, the Tech3 Racing team settled over to Brno for the Grand Prix Ceske Republiky. Thereby, Bo Bendsneyder had a decent start to the weekend, finding himself inside the top 20 in FP1 and improving his fastest lap by 0.871 seconds this afternoon. On the other side of the garage, Remy Gardner struggled to find the perfect feeling in the morning but was able to lower his lap time by an impressive 1.442 seconds and is set to make further steps in the third Free Practice session tomorrow at 10.55 local time.


Bo Bendsneyder; Position: 26th–  Time: 2’04.478 – Laps: 28


“Today has not been easy. In the morning we did just 13 laps, but the feeling was quite good. In the afternoon we needed to make more laps in order to have the same base like all the others, but it was tough. Especially with the hard tyre I didn’t have a great feeling. Then we put the soft one in and it felt ok. Our time was not too bad, but it’s really close. I’m looking to find a better feeling in the front, so I hope tomorrow will be better.”
