Albon enjoys test day with Red Bull: ''Good to be back in the car''

Alexander Albon has completed his first laps on the Silverstone circuit. The Thai comes into action for Red Bull Racing during a test in England, working according to the new corona guidelines.

Not Max Verstappen, but Albon gets in for a test of Red Bull today. The Dutchman would have to be quarantined because of the flight restrictions in England and so they chose Albon, who already lives in England. Red Bull uses a filming day to test with the RB16 and has to get used to the new corona measures.

"We're at Silverstone and it's beautiful weather today. We do a movie day here and it feels good to be back in the car. It's all still a bit weird, but we've only just started. We still have some laps to do and yes, it feels good'', Albon says in a video from Red Bull.

Red Bull is the last team to do a test before the first Grand Prix in Austria. Previously Mercedes, Ferrari, McLaren, Renault, AlphaTauri and Racing Point have also been seen on several circuits. Haas, Alfa Romeo and Williams are the only teams that will not be in action.
