Onto the usual pre-race procedure now. National anthem then the formation lap in just over 10 minutes.

Michael Andretti to Sky
"That's our goal [2025], and we are working on it. We are in the process and working with the FIA. We are submitting our documents this weekend and we should get a reply in July. We are working on it as we speak. We are building a team."

Bottas to Sky
"All under control at this moment. It's already on a tricky track not to make any mistakes and the wind is gusty. You don't want to go off line because it's dusty. Some braking zones might get some cleaning up."

Track conditions
It rained overnight so the track is 'green' - this means the rubber has been washed off by the rain thus there should be less grip and potentially more tyre wear.
Problem is, overtaking off the racing line may be very, very tricky.
