25 laps in the first session of the weekend
- Carlos set the eleventh fastest time of the morning (1:34.258) in a session that proved useful to test the new tarmac and gain experience around the track.
- Busy program: he completed 10 laps on supersoft tyres before switching to the ultrasofts, on which he completed another 14.
- It was a clean session for the Spaniard, although the lack of grip and the changes in the wind direction caused many mistakes up and down the grid.
