Nico Hulkenberg (8th): "The first Friday of the season turned out to be positive for our team. Between training sessions, we seriously changed the settings, and the result was positive. It wasn't easy to drive the car, but the lap time with a little fuel looks good. Tomorrow, in qualifying, we will understand what positions we take in relation to our rivals.
On Friday, we collected a large amount of information, which the team will analyze in the evening in order to find an opportunity to add by tomorrow. Now it's important to move forward step by step, optimize the car with each session."
Gabriel Bortoleto (18th): "Overall, I'm happy with today. We were able to test a lot, especially in the second training session – we had to figure out which option worked better and what we could improve.
Tomorrow, during the morning training session, we will have another chance to refine the settings and make the necessary adjustments before qualifying. It feels good so far, I'm looking forward to continuing."
