Alonso: “Only tomorrow will we have a more precise picture of the situation”

Fernando Alonso set the third fastest time behind the two Red Bulls in Friday's second free practice session of the Korean F1 GP. Spanish, though. he still doesn't have a precise idea of ​​Ferrari's level this weekend.

“It's difficult to say where we are compared to the others, because today we mainly looked after ourselves, working this morning on comparing different ideas on the configuration of the car and, in the afternoon, on the tyres” explained Alonso.

“We will have to wait until tomorrow to have a more precise picture of the situation. The track has improved a lot from one session to the next: it is a particularly accentuated phenomenon here because there are practically no competitions on this track and, this morning, the asphalt was particularly dirty. We hope that the situation will be better tomorrow because it is always more fun to drive when the asphalt offers a minimum of grip. The most challenging part of this track is certainly the third sector, the shortest in terms of travel time, where there are practically only curves. The set-up choices are mainly dictated by the car's performance in the third sector while the other two are certainly easier to deal with."
