Lawson: The strategy for the qualification still needs to be discussed.

      Liam Lawson is replacing Isaac Hadjar in the Red Bull Racing team for the second weekend in a row and finished the first day of the weekend in Monza in 12th place on the timesheet, but he probably completed the most laps on Friday, and this is not a coincidence.

      Liam Lawson (12th): "I would say the day went quite well. In the second session, we mainly worked on long runs; I did one such run on soft tires and another on hard tires, and it was very useful for me as I learned a lot.

      In Zandvoort, I had more difficulties during the race than in qualifying, so here we will try to do everything to achieve improvements. Certainly, when it comes to the upcoming qualifying session, we still need to discuss tactics within the team and come up with a plan of action.

      By the way, I am not surprised by the progress of Racing Bull, because, to be honest, we have been performing very confidently since the beginning of the season, and all the innovations that the team is implementing are working quite effectively. Of course, this is very encouraging, as I know that when I return to the team, I will be driving a good car.

      And it is still striking that sometimes they manage to show such results on the lap, especially since the RB22 gives a completely different impression."

      Max Verstappen (9th): "Today it was not easy to achieve the optimal balance of the car, and we will need to work on that tomorrow to at least slightly improve the lap times.

      The gap from the leaders is still quite large, but I hope that in qualifying on one fast lap we can reduce it. I also hope that during the race distance it will become even smaller, and in long runs, we will do better.

      However, it is still difficult to predict anything. In the evening, we will work on the car and see what can be done and if there is a chance to achieve some changes so that the car handles corners better.

      Of course, I only participated in one second session on the track, but it's good that Ayumu Iwasa got a chance to work behind the wheel of the RB22."
