Nicholas Latifi:
"Above all else I really enjoyed today. It is my first time here in
a Formula One car as well as my first time driving a street track in
these cars. It is a lot faster than I remembered in Formula 2 and you
really notice the extra width these cars have. It was a lot of fun; we
have some things to work on tonight to improve the balance ahead of
Saturday. We had a pretty clean day and got confidence lap by lap, so I
am happy with where we are." |

George Russell:
"Firstly, it is amazing to be back on the track in Monaco. It is so
thrilling pushing the car to the limit. It is obviously really difficult
having 20 cars on the track in the space of an hour for everybody to get
clear laps. I think we had a productive day; the car is roughly where we
expected it to be. The Alfa Romeo’s look really fast, which is something
that we did expect on this kind of circuit. We have a long day tomorrow
to analyse everything and I am confident we can make some gains for
Saturday." |

Dave Robson, Head of Vehicle Performance:
"We’ve had a useful and productive day here in Monaco. The circuit has
proved challenging, but the car and the drivers have risen to that
challenge well. We completed a lot of laps on all three of the Pirelli
compounds and suffered no damage or issue. We have a day to go through
the data before we return to the track on Saturday for the final free
practice session. It has been a solid start to the event and are now in
a good position to continue to push the car harder as we progress
through the weekend." |
