Colapinto: We know it won't be easy for us in Baku.
Last year Franco Colapinto finished eighth in Baku, driving for Williams. Then the Argentine moved to Alpine, but he couldn't achieve more. On Thursday in Baku he recalled last year...
Franco Colapinto: "It was an amazing weekend, only my second race. One of my favourite memories is coming here straight after Monza and competing in my first Formula 1 street race. An amazing weekend and amazing memories of the end of qualifying and the points we scored.
This year, knowing the car's weaknesses, we understand that it will be tough for us here. The long straights of the Baku circuit don't suit our car, but we'll try to make the most of what we have.
We're doing everything we can. The round at Monza was very tough for our team, long and hard, but we came here with hope and we'll try to show good pace. We worked at the factory, found a few things on the simulator and hope that will help."
