Alex Albon: "I’ll be a bit off the pace in FP1"

Alex Albon is expecting to be off the pace during FP1 as the Red Bull driver has very little experience of racing at Singapore. It will take the British-Thai driver a few laps to familiarise himself with the layout and then try and catch up with his teammate.

“It doesn’t look an easy track,” Albon said to RaceFans Dieter Rencken. “I think it’s one of what few tracks where you see a big gap in lap times.

Albon will hope to pick up the track layout quickly so that he can then get some solid laps under his belt. With the quality of simulators out there he will know the track quite well but will build more confidence the more laps he does.
