Кевин Магнусен:
It’s great to drive around the Circuit Of The Americas even if we did have a couple of small issues today. I think we’ve got scope to be further up the order, which means we should be fighting for points come race day. That’s what we all want.
Джулиън Палмър:
My first impressions of COTA are what an awesome track! I did have a couple of moments learning the limits here and we’ve got a bit of work on the set-up, but nothing other than the usual work you do between Friday and Saturday.
Боб Бел:
A reasonable if a little scrappy day for us. Jolyon’s been learning the circuit whilst Kevin’s morning was partially affected by an electrical issue, then in the afternoon his soft tyres were flat-spotted so the long-run programme had to be modified. Nevertheless, we have sufficient data to head to qualifying and hopefully take a step forward.
