The pace was good, but we must not forget Max who will be close and in the straights in general the Red Bulls are very fast, so it will be difficult. to be on pole and keep it at the start.

But we have to start making the weekends a little less difficult, because the race is so complicated – he added -? We have a great opportunity tomorrow, we have a very good top speed.
