  1. It would have been nice to compare the lap times across sessions for all drivers but FP2 threw a bit of a spanner in the works. Very noticeable improvements between FP1 and FP3 which I guess we can only attribute to a partialy wet track in FP1 and when it was dry, being very green.

    It’s so strange to see Ferrari down in 16th and 18th…. just feels wrong.
