Good early morning!

Antonelli thinks he’s driving a G Wagen

 

Ganbatte Yuki !

 

decent session for Ferrari, let’s hope they have a good weeekend

 

Good to see they improved as session moved on. Need to keep that going the rest of the weekend. Mclaren are a bit of a surprise so far along with Russell pace.

 

Big crash for Doohan…. Not a great start to the year for the rookies…

 

A writer from the The Race was watching and offered this:
Edd Straw's take on Tsunoda's session

Tsunoda made an assured start to his Red Bull Racing career, setting a best time just 0.107s off team-mate Verstappen. He was on target to improve on that on the final lap of his second run only to go deep at the chicane and ruin his lap.

He took a sensible approach to the session, feeling his way in but always looking confident and in control. Initially, he pushed harder in the slow corners - suffering from some wheelspin at the exits - but then gradually became more attacking in the quicker corners.

His communication was also clear and concise as he and the team worked through various settings experiments with diff and brake-balance settings.

Like his team-mate, he used two sets of softs with a similar runplan - although Verstappen split his first run. That meant a mini long-run for his final stint, on which he struggled for rear grip and had a bigger deficit to Verstappen.

But it was a good start for Tsunoda, who looked confident and in control even though there were moments when the car caught him out, and reported "I found the car quite interesting on the track".

 

Barrier repair needed so this will be a long red flag.

 

4min to restart hopefully
