Full transcript from the FIA-hosted Friday press conference at Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari, Imola on day one of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, Round 2 of the 2021 Formula 1 World Championship.
PART ONE
Q: That was an eventful FP1 so can we start with a
résumé
from each of you about how it went. Franz, let’s start with you please.
Franz Tost: So far everything went OK, at least with Pierre Gasly. I think we have a competitive package together. Unfortunately with the soft tyres he hit a little bit of traffic, nevertheless, I think he can show a good performance here. With Yuki, we were not so lucky because there was an electronic problem on the power unit – a wiring loom or something like this. I hope that they can sort it out for the second free practice session and that he can do some laps and that we can set-up the car in a proper way that he is prepared for tomorrow for the qualifying and Sunday for the race.
