QUOTES:
“In general, it was a positive day here in Mexico. We completed the two sessions without any issues and managed to change the car quite a lot between the sessions to test different approaches”.
“It’s not an easy circuit, we’re naturally lacking downforce here due to the altitude but we’re having fun out there".
“Thanks to all the Mexican fans for their great support! It’s always impressive to drive through the arena zone and hear them cheer! We’ll try to put on a good show for everyone this weekend".
