Chinese Grand Prix

FP1: P20 1:44.118 8 laps

Jules: “It was my first ever practice session in Formula One and my first time driving the Shanghai circuit, so there was quite a lot to learn. We tried to do as much as possible, but the weather made things difficult and we didn’t do a lot of laps. After the install lap the track was still a bit damp in places, but almost immediately it started to rain again so we decided to wait for conditions to improve. I went out for a timed lap on the intermediates towards the end before switching to the dry tyres, but the track was very low grip and it was hard to push to the limit. It was good to work with the team and any time in the car is always valuable experience.”

Jakob Andreasen, Chief Engineer
“We made the most of a damp morning session to begin our evaluation of some small aero developments we have introduced to the car this week. It was also Jules’ first opportunity to take part in a free practice session with us and despite covering limited mileage he did a good job and gave valuable feedback.
