“FP2 was extra difficult for us, weirdly, as a result of FP1 monitor circumstances have been an absolute catastrophe,” Lawson conceded. “I don’t assume I’ve ever pushed such a troublesome session, to be trustworthy.
“[In] FP2, stability went away from us just a little bit, however basically I feel the automobile’s in a reasonably good place – it’s simply superb tuning. Clearly tomorrow we’ve got a session within the day which isn’t going to assist us for Quali, so we’ll be trying into this session and taking what we will for Quali tomorrow.”
The Bahrain Worldwide Circuit is a well-known monitor for a lot of the subject – provided that the venue hosted pre-season testing this yr – and Lawson admitted that that is more likely to make the margins even finer throughout the sphere.
“I made a fairly large mistake in FP2 and it completely dropped me down, so for all of us we’ve got to completely nail the lap as a result of in any other case it’s very, very expensive right here,” the 23-year-old stated.
“With everyone being [at] testing, I feel everyone has a reasonably good automobile, and it’s cool as a result of proper now Method 1 is a bit like that – the distinction between a very good lap and a nasty lap can fully change your place, so it places strain on us.”
