Norris: I'm satisfied with the day's results, but there's not much to be particularly proud of.
Lando Norris showed the first times based on Friday's results and is generally satisfied with how his home weekend is starting, but both McLaren drivers noted the speed Ferrari cars are capable of at Silverstone.
Lando Norris (1st): "On the soft tires, I managed to do a very good lap, I stay true to myself in that regard, but overall, I must admit that Ferrari is very fast today, and the same will be true tomorrow.
Honestly, we still have work to do. It might seem like we looked even too good today, but in the third practice, Ferrari always catches up with us — that’s how it was last weekend as well. Overall, I’d say I’m pleased with the day’s results, but there’s not much to boast about yet.
Driving is still not that easy, and things didn’t go as smoothly as I’d like. But our goal for tomorrow is to fight for pole position."
Oscar Piastri (4th): "A quick lap on the soft tires in the second session didn't go as well as I hoped, but I think we definitely have potential. The pace over long runs was quite confident, and overall, it was an interesting first day; however, the competition promises to be very fierce.
Driving was challenging due to the gusty wind, which is only expected to get stronger during the weekend, so events could take quite an interesting turn and become even more exciting. There are many high-speed corners on this track, and the influence of the wind is very noticeable in them.
It was a bit of a surprise how fast the Ferrari cars are — they looked good both on short and long runs — so they will be serious competitors this weekend. But that only makes it more interesting!»
