Fernando Alonso got off to a fast start in Monaco, finishing FP2 in fourth place, just two-tenths of a second behind Max Verstappen’s Red Bull.

“We completed enough laps today and we were able to get a good understanding of our car here around Monaco. It was important to find a rhythm early this weekend and avoid any issues.”

“In both sessions the car felt good and it’s easy to drive which helps at this circuit. There are going to be lots of ups and downs for everybody this year, so we have to be ready to deliver every weekend.”

“Some race weekends we will be quicker than our rivals and others it might be different, but I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s qualifying session,” said Alonso.
