Haas F1 are pleased with Friday's results.

      On Friday in Mexico Ryo Hirakawa piloted Oliver Bearman's car in the first practice, while the two regular drivers ran in the second...

      Esteban Ocon (13th): "An interesting day. We learned a lot about the car, tried several setup options and were able to improve. Now we need to settle on a strategy and approach qualifying with confidence. The car update allowed us to gain pace, the team did an excellent job improving the car's balance."

      Oliver Bearman (17th): "It's always unpleasant to miss the first practice, but the second went smoothly. On long runs the pace is very good, but on short runs we still need to work on speed. The upgrades are working as we expected; we'll analyze everything overnight to take another step in the third practice."

      Ryo Hirakawa (16th in the first session): "I want to thank Haas F1 and TOYOTA GAZOO Racing for the opportunity. The session was intense — this track is quite short for 20 cars. Also, it was my first time competing at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez — much of it was new to me. I was learning the track, dealing with traffic, working with the tires, but in the end we completed the whole planned program, so I'm satisfied. I'm looking forward to Abu Dhabi, where I'll be back behind the wheel."
