Albon pleased STR14 perfomance but more "fine tuning" is needed

Alexander Albon has admitted he’s pleased with the Toro Rosso car in FP2 in Azerbiajan despite that being the only session following the incident with George Russell and the drain cover, which led to FP1 being cancelled.

Russell’s car was ruined after he drove over a drain cover between turn two and three which left Russell unhurt, but the FW42 required a new chassis. Whilst Russell was unable to continue Albon managed to stay composed following the delay and secured another impressive top ten display in FP2 going into Saturday’s final practice session.

Albon admitted cancelling the session was the right move but was impressed with the pace of his STR14 saying: “There was only one practice session today, but I think it was the right choice considering the safety risks.
