Red Bull Racing Honda F1 Austrian Grand Prix practices – will be tight again

FORMULA 1
BWT AUSTRIAN Grand Prix
Red Bull Ring, Austria
Friday, July 2nd 2021

MAX VERSTAPPEN
First Practice Session: 1:05.143, Position: 1, Laps: 37
Second Practice Session: 1:04.740, Position: 3, Laps: 35

“From our side we didn’t have a perfect run in FP2 but nevertheless I felt good in the car and there are no real problems. Mercedes looked quite quick on the soft so we just have to make sure we have a little more pace on that compound because we looked stronger on the medium and in the long runs, which at the end of the day is the most important for the race.

We also tested the new Pirelli prototype tyre which seemed to be fine. It did get quite greasy out there but luckily it was good enough to keep on driving so we had a good read on the long run pace.

I think it will be tight again this weekend as it looks like Mercedes improved a bit but we will see tomorrow in qualifying and the most important thing is to make sure we look after the softer compounds in the race.”

SERGIO PEREZ
First Practice Session: 1:05.726, Position: 8, Laps: 31
Second Practice Session: 1:05.516, Position: 11, Laps: 39

“The long runs were definitely more promising today but there’s still a lot of work to do. Both sessions were quite tough and I’m not feeling fully comfortable with the car on the softer compound yet. We need to analyse the data tonight to try and get the pace back to where we would expect it to be, ready for qualifying tomorrow.

We seemed to be quite far away from the balance with the low fuel but we corrected that quite quickly, we were also seeing less degradation on these tyres too which is good. It’s good to see Pirelli bringing a new tyre to test this weekend before we use them at Silverstone.

Overall, I learnt a lot from today and it’s great to see all of the fans here at the Red Bull Ring and hopefully we can have a good qualifying tomorrow and a solid race on Sunday.”
