The weather was wet, the track was cold but on 19th February 2018, the RB14 turned its first laps at a filming day in Silverstone. After running concluded, Daniel professed himself happy with his first experience of the new car.
"It's always hard to tell from a few laps but the initial feeling is good. It's not doing anything that scares me and I can already feel that the rear of the car feels pretty settled, even in these poor conditions. Those are encouraging early signs."
