Here's what Carlos Sainz said after a positive day for Ferrari in Imola

Carlos Sainz finished FP1 in third place and FP2 in sixth place, and is content after a positive Friday with his Ferrari SF-24. The Spaniard says he is 'confident' Ferrari are in a good place for their first home race of the year, especially as teammate Charles Leclerc topped both sessions.

"A good Friday for the team. We had a strong FP1 and in FP2 we made some changes that seemed to go in the right direction and I was reasonably happy with the car. I didn't put together a clean lap with the soft but I’m confident we are in a good place," said the three-time Grand Prix winner.

Ferrari will be hoping that both drivers can replicate their practice performances and qualify on pole position on Saturday in Imola.
