Alex Albon:
"A tricky Friday where we struggled a bit with the setup. The track is also super slippery out there, so it took a while to get up to speed and get some proper laps in. We’ve got some work to do overnight and we will analyse everything as a team. If we can get on top of a few things for tomorrow, I think we’ll be in a better spot for qualifying."

Carlos Sainz:
"I’m relatively happy with the car, especially considering I missed FP1. There’s some setup work that needs to be done going into FP3 tomorrow but overall, it was a positive session. For tomorrow, I think Q3 should be our target, but to achieve it we will need to execute a perfect qualifying. Let’s see if we can find some performance overnight and keep improving step by step."

Luke Browning:
"A really enjoyable day being back out in the FW47! It’s a new track for me, so I’ve been learning the circuit lap by lap and making the most of the time out there. The pace looked strong on the hard tyre where we were quickest of the rookies. The medium tyre wasn’t as strong and unfortunately, we didn’t get a run on the soft tyre, but the long runs looked good which should bode well for Sunday. My main focus now is on the final two rounds of Formula 2 and hopefully securing the championship in Abu Dhabi."
