A tricky first day on track for Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport in Montreal

  • Lewis finished the morning session at the top of the time sheets with Valtteri in P2
  • Valtteri was P3 in the afternoon session

  • Lewis ended FP2 in P6, after his session was cut short by a clash with the wall sustaining some damage to the car

Valtteri Bottas

I really enjoyed today, it was good fun out there. This track is always very dusty at the beginning and keeps improving, so you need to find the grip step by step. That’s what I like about this circuit because it’s different every time you go out and you always need to discover it again, get a feel for it and learn. The car feels strong, but we have some work to do on the balance; the car became more difficult to drive with the changes we made for FP2, but it also felt a little quicker. So we need to review if there’s anything we could have done better for FP2 and what we’re going to do for tomorrow. It’s nice to have a new engine with a bit more power; it’s not a huge difference, but you can feel it, and it’s a really good feeling. The car seemed strong on both long and short runs, but Ferrari was very quick on the straights, so I expect it to be a very close fight tomorrow. But I like this track and I’m confident, so I’m looking forward to qualifying.
