Renault Sport Formula One Team driver Jolyon Palmer completed a productive first day of running for the Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix race weekend.
Jolyon completed a full uninterrupted programme on a warm and humid Marina Bay Street Circuit across both evening sessions in the twilight.
Jolyon: “That was a pretty straightforward evening in the car and we’ve achieved everything we wanted today so that’s a positive. You could definitely feel the grip level improving over the sessions and we have a pretty solid base set-up. It’s certainly a pretty special lap around here.”
