“I was fast in the first two sectors, but we missed something and we need to understand why and we have to finish it tomorrow, because our position is not safe. So we will see if we can be even faster or not.”

Furthermore, Fabio Quartararo felt that there was a speed deficit when crossing the Losail Circuit, which he had previously been worried about. This makes it uncomfortable to ride the motorbike. Because of this, it affects his time in free practice.
