Achieving the fourteenth best time, he confirmed feeling good sensations: \u00ab It was great to be back in the car after Shanghai, and I was able to continue my momentum. I set my best time early in the session, so I couldn&#8217;t stay very high in the rankings with the longer runs later in the session, but I&#8217;m happy with my progress. The car has improved since China. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p>Once again forced to give up his spot on Friday morning, Romain Grosjean remained positive despite an uncomfortable situation that is unfortunately likely to repeat several more times this season: \u00ab It was a frustrating session for me, as I couldn&#8217;t bring the car exactly where I wanted it; but we saw, with Pastor&#8217;s lap, that the pace was there once we got the settings to work. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p>With a seventh fastest time achieved during the second session, Pastor Maldonado can indeed aim for a Q3 on Saturday: &#8220;It&#8217;s very good to see that we didn&#8217;t spend much time finding the right settings to adapt to the temperature change [between the afternoon and early evening],&#8221; he said after the second practice session.<\/p>\n<p>The Lotus proved to be particularly fast on the long straights of the circuit, taking advantage of the Mercedes engine&#8217;s power to secure one of the top three speeds on the grid.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The three Lotus drivers (Maldonado, Palmer, Grosjean) on track this Friday in Bahrain generally appreciated the behavior of their car.
