Everyone was on Softs, except for Valtteri Bottas, Zhou Guanyu and Logan Sargeant who were on Mediums.
The Red Bull RB20 car was quickest in every sector, but Scuderia Ferrari was very close in the first sector (+0.03s) and also in the second sector (+0.02s), while McLaren was close to Red Bull in the final sector (+0.08s). McLaren was also quick in S1, but their low top speed held them back in the fast S3.
Ferrari seems has a very good baseline car. If they get it right, they will be very competitive later in the season.
