"Really, really difficult. We were in safety mode for the first half - we just had to manage things. It's the first time here in these new cars and we have things to learn. The tyres were tricky too. Now the softs at the rear are too soft and the hards are too hard. There is no perfect choice." | ||||||

"It's really difficult to find the balance with the tyres. Very easy to make a mistake. I'm sticking to my plan: no mistakes, just drive in the middle of the road." | ||||||

"Very, very slippery. The road is quite loose, I was struggling for grip and sliding around a lot. For sure it will clean off. A bit of mud in the middle, which was a surprise, but the grip was okay there." | ||||||

"We slid wide on a right-hander two kilometres before the finish and hit a rock. Instant puncture. Otherwise a good stage. We will be quicker on the repeat." | ||||||

"There are a lot of different choices for tyres here, and probably no perfect solution. We have two hards and three softs, and the softs should better suit the next stages." | ||||||
