F1 | Mercedes, Bottas: “The biggest concern is the wind”
"It makes a lot of difference on a street circuit"
The Finn concluded the first day of free practice at the Baku circuit with the fourth fastest time, completing 25 laps. These are his statements at the end of FP2:
“FP1 was better than FP2 because I think we lacked a bit of pace in the second session compared to Ferrari and Red Bull. It was quite difficult to do a full lap, even my best time today was a bit messy, it's not an easy car to drive at the moment, we have some work to do with the balance. But if we have everything right, the car is fast. We have a lot to see tonight so we can make the right changes for tomorrow and Sunday. The fact that we are here in Baku earlier than in previous years definitely affects the tyres, but the biggest concern is the wind. It should be very windy tomorrow and Sunday, which makes a lot of difference on a street circuit.".
