Carlos Sainz, fifth in Free Practice 2 for the Belgian GP

Friday, 26 August 2022
-    Free Practice 1: P1, 1:46.538, 16 laps
-    Free Practice 2: P5, 1:46.649, 20 laps

  • Carlos led the morning practice, which was compromised by a red flag and the rain, and was fifth in the afternoon session.
  • A slight drizzle also fell during Free Practice 2, compromising the longer runs that were meant to prepare Sunday’s race.
  • Several rivals of the Spaniard have changed their power unit and therefore will take the start of the Grand Prix from the back of the grid.

QUOTES:
“Overall it was a good Friday. In FP1 I felt comfortable with the balance of the car. For FP2 we tried some changes which didn’t really work as expected and we lost a bit the feeling".

"However I’m confident we know where to find the lap time for tomorrow and the long run pace was also ok, so I believe we are in a good place for the rest of the weekend".
