Allan McNish finds confidence in Audi's Monaco practice pace

It is quite a moment when a team finds its rhythm on the narrow streets of Monte Carlo, and Audi's Racing Director Allan McNish is feeling that surge of optimism. Both Nico Hulkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto managed to find strong top 10 pace during Friday's practice sessions.

For a team looking to solidify its footing, seeing both drivers perform consistently across all tyre compounds is a serious confidence booster. McNish is clearly pleased with the progress, and honestly, seeing that kind of speed in the principality is a beautiful sight.
