Helmut Marko: “On a fast lap everything is fine, we are competitive, but over the long run things are not smooth, we are clearly behind McLaren, especially on Medium tyres. On Softs the gap is smaller, but we are still behind. This has nothing to do with the temperature. It's a matter of balance and grip. And we need to work on that.
Piastri was clearly behind Norris. It looks like he has problems, but it's only Friday, they can still sort it out. But first we need to solve our own problems, and then we'll look at the competitors.”
