“Today we worked well as a team and the track was in better condition than last weekend when the asphalt was half wet and half dry. Without a doubt it was a very productive first day and in terms of set-up we made some progress on both bikes. So tomorrow we'll start off on the right foot and I hope to move straight to Q2."
