“During the day we managed to improve, but so did the rest. Although we struggled to find the fastest lap on this track we were able to be among the front runners. I am happy because compared to last year we have made a big step forward, but we are not in the grid position we would like to be. It’s positive to be able to be among the fastest drivers but we have to find where we can improve, especially in the first sector. We will analyze all the information we have gathered to make a step forward tomorrow.”
