Charles Leclerc: We are confident in our race pace.

      Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton recorded the second and third fastest times in the second practice session for the British Grand Prix. Both Ferrari drivers expressed satisfaction with the car's pace at Silverstone, although there is potential to improve in the flying laps.

      Charles Leclerc (2nd): "Today went pretty smoothly. The feeling behind the wheel was good, but we still need to work on the car. In qualifying mode, we are slightly behind, but I am confident in the race pace. I really enjoyed driving on this track, and I’m looking forward to tomorrow.”

      Lewis Hamilton (3rd): "An exciting day. It’s just incredible to be at Silverstone for the first time driving a Ferrari. The car handled well in both sessions, although I encountered traffic on the fast lap in the second session, so there’s definitely room for faster times. As always, it was great to return to this circuit. Silverstone is the best track in the world and definitely my favorite. It’s nice to see so many spectators in the stands already on Friday. The atmosphere is simply incredible."
