We had a busy but unrewarding first day at the Aragon track. We had higher hopes for the new tarmac when it comes to improved grip, so much so that we were afraid it would negatively affect tyre life, but we discovered the opposite today. This amplified in a negative way our performance. We will spend all the available time before the next session to learn from the data we collected today to prepare something for FP2 and the qualifying sessions. On top of today's lack of grip, Fabio had a crash in Turn 6 but, luckily, it had no big consequences.
