• Carlos worked with three tyre compounds available for this weekend, clocking 17 laps on the Hard tyre in Free Practice 1 and 19 on the Medium one in Free Practice 2.
• The Spaniard of Ferrari felt comfortable straightaway. In fact, already in Free Practice 1 (1:19.806), he improved the Pole Position of 2019 thanks to the changes that have made the track faster.
• The two steps between the Hard tyre (C3) and the Soft option (C5) pose an additional challenge when designing the perfect strategy for this Sunday’s race.

QUOTES:
“It has been an interesting Friday as we had to deal with a lot of new things compared to the last time that we raced here. The track is completely different from what it used to be: it’s definitely faster and the new tarmac feels totally different in terms of grip from what I remembered. We need to keep working on understanding how the tyres behave but, in general, I think we have a good baseline to start preparing the qualifying of tomorrow".
