Red Bull European FP1 & 2 Driver Views

Driver views from the opening practice sessions in Valencia.

SEBASTIAN VETTEL  

"Overall a good day, we did a lot of laps, we didn't have any problem with the car so we could follow our programme like it should be on a Friday. We need to see if we keep the   F-duct in the car, we need to confirm that, but all in all I think the pace was promising today considering this shouldn't be our strongest track. We did a step forward with the whole car - it was a good day for us."

MARK WEBBER

"We had a good Friday programme with no interruptions and evaluated the tyres and the F-duct which we will look into tonight - as we all know it's not without its challenges getting that thing working. The track changed a lot this afternoon, the conditions were moving around a bit. But a very productive day for   us: the car ran faultlessly and was pretty comfortable so looking forward to tomorrow."
