Leclerc: McLaren is significantly ahead of us.
Ferrari evaluates Friday's results positively but is disappointed with the significant gap to McLaren...
Charles Leclerc (3rd): "We completed the planned program. It seems that McLaren is significantly ahead of us, but we're working and will try to change the situation tomorrow. I don't think there's anything we can do differently, so everything will depend on whether we can repeat what we did today."
Lewis Hamilton (6th): "We followed the program and made adjustments to improve the balance. The car still lacks grip, but we are moving in the right direction.
In the final stages, tire wear was higher than before – we need to work on that. We have enough data for analysis, and I look forward to tomorrow and getting back on track."
