Red Bul Racing had a seemingly difficult Friday at the Red Bull Ring. Both drivers didn't have super fast times and what worried them most were the balance problems they seemed to be struggling with. Despite this Alexander Albon is quite optimistic afterwards.

"Today felt pretty good and it was nice to be back in the car. I'm happy and excited that we're back underway and I think everyone was on it straight away which I was quite surprised about!"

Albon wants to stay away from the kerbstones

During tomorrow's third free practice session it's not only important to get up to speed before qualifying, it's also crucial that the car stays in one piece. With the kerbstones in Austria this isn't always easy, but Albon knows what to do.

"It's been a long time since we did this amount of running so there's a lot to look through now ahead of tomorrow. There are a couple of things we need to work on, and there's always a bit of time in your driving and set-up, so we'll see where we are tomorrow but we know what to do."

"You've got to build up to the limit here as the kerbs are dangerous and some of them can be front wing killers if you hit them too hard. But overall the car felt good, I feel good, and I'm looking forward to tomorrow."
