Objectives P1 • Evaluation of new aero parts including a new exhaust and rear wing Objectives P2 • Comparison work of new aero parts between both cars • Tyre testing and set‐up work |
Rubens Barrichello:
![]() "We’ve brought a lot of upgrades to Valencia so it was a busy day for the team. The new items still need a bit more work so we will go away and have a look at the information we collected from today. We will do our best to get what we can from the car to do a good job in qualifying and to get some points from the race." |
Pastor Maldonado:
![]() "We covered everything we needed to today so that’s good. I had a small problem right at the end of P2 with a slow puncture so I had to end the session a few minutes early, but it didn’t cost us anything really. There are still improvements to make, but there’s no reason why we can’t fight for a place in the top ten tomorrow." |
Sam Michael
Technical Director WilliamsF1 "Today
we evaluated different front wings, a new rear wing as well as a new
exhaust system. After that, we worked on race set-up and covering long
runs to assess the tyres. We didn't have any reliability issues and our
target here is to score some points."
