Verstappen: The session stoppages clearly didn't help.

      Max Verstappen posted only the ninth-fastest time in second practice and is in no rush to draw conclusions...

      Max Verstappen (9th): "So far everything is fine. The red-flag stoppages clearly didn't help, we need to get better grip on the track.

      I don't know what we can expect this weekend. This track can't be compared to others – it's cold here and the asphalt is slippery. The track condition improves with every session; it's important to understand how to work with the tyres in qualifying and the race."

      Yuki Tsunoda (15th): "I'm happy with how we finished our first day of the weekend in Las Vegas. The first session went well, it's a shame the red flags interfered in the second, but the main thing is we have the pace. On low-grip circuits it's important to feel confident in the car, and that feeling is here.

      In the second session the car behaved a bit differently at first than in the first, but then we made corrections and everything was fine again. It's good that we managed to test different setup options, now we need to pull it all together and get the result we want.

      The four leading teams are posting very close times, we need to find more speed, but I hope we can improve tomorrow. We'll see how it all turns out."
