Home hero Alonso ended Friday’s two practice sessions within two-tenths of fellow double world champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen, who set a searing pace in his Red Bull. 

Afꦅter describing FP1 and FP2 as “productive”, Alonso is expecting the competitive order to remain tight heading into qualifying. 

“It’s so tight that I think one or two tenths will put you in a completely different spot in the classification,” he said. “So don’t pay too 𝄹much attention to the times.

“We🌠 went through all the programmes that we had before the free practice, which is the good thing. Learn♋ing about the tyres. 

“The track is a little slower maybe than what we predicted, so there’s still more time to find, more tweaks on the set-up, but it was a pro🔜ductive Friday.”

Aston Martin have introdu🌄ced several updates to their AMR23 challenger this weeken🐽d in Barcelona. 

Asked if tღhe new parts are helping the team’s performance, Alonso replied: “They do, they do, absolutely.

“There is not a new partꦏ that we p⛦ut in the car that is not helping the performance. That’s something that has been always the case with the team from Bahrain. 

“So I’m happy with th💛e upgrades and let’s see tomorrow, when everyone goes to full power, where we are.”
