Esteban Ocon: "It is always nice coming back to the Hungaroring, a track I enjoy driving and a place where I will always have fond memories.

"Overall, it was a difficult Friday, with the car not quite working or behaving in the way we wanted after trying some experiments in both sessions. We are struggling slightly with general balance and grip on both the short and long runs. The car did feel better on high fuel, but we need to improve across the board if we are to be competitive for the rest of the weekend. We need to look into these things and try to make improvements ahead of Qualifying tomorrow."

Pierre Gasly: "It is great to be back in Hungary, although, on our side today, it has been a challenging start to the weekend. Obviously, the high temperatures here are quite tough to contend with and the car did not feel great today. There is lots for us to work on overnight in terms of car balance and set up, so of course, the simulator work back at base tonight will be important. We are still yet to find the car's sweet spot at this track. There's more to come from us and hopefully we can put our learnings into practice ahead of tomorrow and be in better shape."
