Team Principal Andrea Stella: "A positive and productive day; we accomplished our plan without any issues.

This will allow the team to work through the night in preparation for tomorrow's qualifying, where we expect a tense fight for pole position."
Lando Norris (1st): "The car was in good shape from the first laps. The results are close, but I understand well what I need from the car – we will work on that tonight to be in the best possible form for qualifying."
Oscar Piastri (2nd): "A good Friday. The car is fast. We'll need to fine-tune some details overnight, but overall, everything is fine. I’m looking forward to tomorrow."
