"It was an interesting first day on a brand-new circuit. There was a lot to learn and plenty to explore, and it's definitely a unique track. It's incredibly fast, almost like a rollercoaster, with very little room for error, so it keeps you on your toes all the way around. We gathered plenty of information, and now it's about going through everything overnight, understanding what we've learned and seeing how we can use that to improve further."


Gabriel Bortoleto (Car 5):
FP1: 11th / 1:24.006 (27 laps)
FP2: 13th / 1:35.170 (25 laps)

“It’s been great to finally get a first feeling of the Madring. Overall, it’s been a positive day for us: we learned a lot throughout the two sessions, although there is still some work to do overnight to try and extract some extra pace from our car. That will be our main task tomorrow – we’ll keep working, and I am looking forward to it.”
