Williams gives the initial surprise to Canada with Albon and Sainz with the 3 best and Leclerc goes to the wall

Mostly as expected of Williams In Canada. Warned Carlos Sainz that the low performance of Barcelona This is a punctual object, the result of the track of the Catalan track, and that the Gilles Villeneuve may one of the best circuits for the car of Grove. And although only one first session was beaten not too representative, the blue team began illusions, along with Alebon To th -2 position in 39 thousand of the best chrono, marked by Max verstappen, and Carlos Sainz In third to 82 thousand.

However, it is still early to draw fast conclusions, especially since the track is very green and will improve a lot in the remaining sessions. And are those two great favorites, the McLarenThey did not demonstrate their potential and played secretion, perhaps centered on the review and data collection with improvements of performance they took on the track. Its orange, its dominator WorldThey tried a new front and new front and rear aileron suspension. ‘Papaya’ thus demonstrated their potential evolution throughout the 2026 car creation process, the priority for all teams. The ones Woking They do not stop improving and want to do this more in pieces, which Norris combines with paraffin (paint) to study and understand the air flow by car on the track.

So, Tho -7 norris with a time marked with the second twist of soft rubber, at 0 “458 of the best, and Piastri, head of the World Cup with 10 points in Lando and 49 compared to Max, is only 14 to 1 second. That suggests how much the representative is the image seen for free 1, though it can relieve that Williams can be on an optimal track where Albon and Sainz can fight better weapons against Ferrari, Mercedes and one of the Red Bull intentions on a top-5, or maybe the other if the events occur and take advantage of them.

Leclerc, accident to start

In the fourth position Poleman ended last year, Russell, along with a Mercedes who left 0 “342 of the best time. Hamilton will be 5 with the Ferrari to 0 “427 And the great doubt is to find out what can be done Leclerc. Charles started the strong, marked the starting speed, but in the first 15 minutes of the session he had left the wall, destroying his car and ending his session early. Lost an important time to try to optimize a Ferrari who has not started well this year, but may be better on Canadian lines.

French partner Colapint, after his bad sensation initially with the Gallic team, started FP1 with a twist, but that didn’t stop him Pierre. You should improve from there on a track where you have never been voted.

Alonso, 12

To a very compatible grill, and in a circuit that has already issued notifications in the chaos that can survive in Q1 of classification due to excessive track traffic, Fernando Alonso Started at the 12th placeless than a tenth of its goal, the top-10, but is aware that PiastriThrough -14, it has no position. Asturian finished 43 thousands of Red Bull de Tsunana and there are clear problems of Survey On curve 10, where it has long been on some occasions.

Aston Martin should correct safety for free 2 Testing a change of settings to optimize the performance of the green car, where Alonso wants to go for another Q3 as he did in the last three appointments, as the first pack of evolutions of the year in Icola came.
