P1racenews AI automatic summary:


Daniel Ricciardo is convinced that AlphaTauri will “definitely be faster” over the remainder of the Sao Paulo Grand Prix weekend

AlphaTauri focused on the Hard and Medium compounds in FP1 to save Soft tyres for qualifying, but both drivers were unable to advance beyond Q1, with Yuki Tsunoda and Ricciardo finishing P16 and P17 respectively. Ricciardo reflected on a strong first run but made a mistake on the last lap in Turn 2, resulting in their elimination. He mentioned struggling with the car earlier but was happier with the changes made for qualifying. Tsunoda struggled to find clean air during qualifying and felt he couldn’t maximize his performance. AlphaTauri had hoped to close the gap to Williams in the Constructors’ Championship, but their struggles on Friday make it a more challenging task for Sunday’s race.
