Lance Stroll had a strong showing during Friday practice in Baku, keeping his run clean and ending the second session in sixth place. Stroll comes to Azerbaijan on the back of scoring his first points of the season last time out in Canada.
The 19-year-old's fastest lap in the second practice session was a 1:44.113, which was seven and a half tenths away from the pacesetter, Max Verstappen. Stroll said that the two sessions were a lot of fun and he is enjoying the challenge of the circuit.
"That was good fun, as I am enjoying the track. The car was working well and we didn't have any issues, which was great. I felt the balance was good and now we just need to think overnight, improve on little bits, come back tomorrow and continue pushing.
"I think what was really positive was we didn’t have any issues, and nothing that got in the way of us running our programmes. What was really important for me on this kind of track was to get confidence on every lap and every run. Today we did exactly that and didn't lose any laps with problems or stuff going wrong.
"Things could be better, as this is still the first day of my first time here and we could improve for the qualifying run, but all in all I have to say it was a very positive day in many ways."
