Robert Kubica F1 Williams 2018 test in Abu Dhabi

Williams' drivers beat only 74 laps on the first day of tire testing in Abu Dhabi. George Russell climbed more, but Robert Kubica was faster by a quarter of a second. This is not the time, however, and the feelings of the drivers and the implementation of the supposed plan are the most important. And they are positive – at least in the case of George Russell.

"To be honest, I have very positive feelings today." The team worked very similarly to Mercedes and Force India. I knew what to expect. I imagined having a balance problem during the first two trips, but we made some minor changes. I felt that I could push to check the limits, and it is very important from the driver's point of view to be confident. "The first morning with Williams was great for me, I managed to make the plan without problems and collect a lot of information," said George Russell, quoted by soymotor.com.

Asked about the differences between the 2018 and 2019 tires, he replied: "It's hard to judge because every F1 car is different, I've driven only Mercedes and Force India and I think Robert can say more about it, "said Russell.

Like Robert Kubica, the Englishman does not know who his race engineer will be next season, but he does not care.

"Williams is a very open team, there are no Kubica and Russell camps, there is a team and I'm sure together we will create something good," added Lt. English quoted by soymotor.

Asked about the attitude of Cezary Gutowski towards the rivalry with Robert Kubica, he answers: Absolutely not! The goal is to place the team in the middle of the stake. If I'm 19 and that's not a reason to be proud, "Russell said.

I've been waiting for this entry for 3 hours on Robert's statement, but it seems that he has not yet released the engineers from the wells.
