"I'm happy to be directly in Q2, and overall it was a positive first day here at Phillip Island. I struggled a little at some points, but the pace was still quite competitive, and we managed to improve throughout the day.
My lap time was around a second faster than in the morning, and I think that is a good step forward. The long-run pace was also not too bad, although there are still some areas where we need to improve. We will look at the data and try to understand where we can gain more time.
Now we need to see what the weather brings tomorrow. If it rains, we will have to adapt, but the important thing is to keep working well with the team and maintain our progress. I'm happy with today, and I want to take another step forward in qualifying and give my best".
