Friday: There is still work to do at Williams
Studious day for Williams drivers who evaluated the new updates brought by the team, which seem to deliver the expected results, even though the Grove men suffered from issues with the activation of the rear wing during Free Practice 1 and damage to their cars caused by the curbs.
Rubens Barrichello – 11th and 16th
« We had an effective morning during which we tried different things. The afternoon brought us some problems, so we weren’t able to drive as much as we would have liked. We will work on it tonight to get more performance out of the car. »
Pastor Maldonado – 13th and 17th
« We haven’t found the optimal settings yet as we’ve encountered some issues with the aerodynamic balance of the car, but we can work on it now and during tomorrow’s free practice. With the rubber that will accumulate, the track will improve and so will the car, so I think we can be optimistic for the qualifiers. »
