Red Bull drivers and team report from the first day of free practice of the Bahrain Grand Prix weekend, Round 3 of the 2014 Formula 1 World Championship, at Sakhir;
Sebastian Vettel:
- First Practice Session: Position: 10, Best Time: 1:39.389, Laps: 16.
- Second Practice Session: Position: 7, Best Time: 1:35.606, Laps: 30.
“It was a solid day for us and we didn't have any problems with the car. We’re still learning a lot in terms of reliability and car set up, so it's important to do laps and not to have any problems.”
Daniel Ricciardo:
- First Practice Session: Position: 14, Best Time: 1:40.406, Laps: 19.
- Second Practice Session: Position: 4, Best Time: 1:35.433, Laps: 28.
“We had a better run in P2 today than in P1. In P1 we played around a little bit with a few things on the car, but this evening was better, and we made a step forward. We’ve still got more to go through – so overall not a bad day, but still room for improvement.”
