After finishing second in the second day of Free Practice, Fernando Alonso analyzed the use of the tyres: “You have to learn about the tyres. The track is a bit slower than we had anticipated, so there is still time to find some adjustments to the car’s set-up, but it’s been a productive day.
“I think it’s all so tight that one or two tenths puts you in a totally different position in Qualifying. So, yeah, don’t pay too much attention to the times we’ve done with all the programs we had in practice, which is interesting,” said the Aston Martin driver yesterday.
Continuing in the same line, they report that the possibility of rain rises to 50% at the time that the Classification should be held in Montmeló. At the moment, the sky is still cloudy.

Rain in the ‘Qualy’?
As if there was not enough excitement last Sunday at the Monaco GP, the rain is ‘threatening’ again. The FIA works with the hypothesis that it may rain during qualifying, and has given the drivers an extra set of intermediate tires so that they can use it in the fight for pole position.
