Lambiase provided a very positive debrief of how the first day of on track action had gone.
"So it was a very busy day here in Monza during both practice sessions. We were able to complete our programs as we intended. Both cars ran reliably so we've accumulated a lot of data," the British-Italian engineer began.
"Obviously a lot of work went into this weekend off the back of last year which wasn't quite as competitive as we would have liked," added Lambiase acknowledging the tricky situation in the 2024 Italian Grand Prix.
"But this year we do look much more competitive. The cars are working in a really good window.
"We're on top of the tyres at this stage so there's no major dramas, but we are investigating further to try and improve matters to make sure we're on top of degradation as we need to be to to complete Sunday's strategy."
Nevertheless, despite the positive outlook, Red Bull and its Head of Racing eye further improvements to maximise the result across the weekend of racing on Italian soil.
"There are always a few tweaks that we're looking at on the setup particularly as we're running such a low downforce level stability is key.
"So we're trying to make the drivers even more comfortable to be able to attack those medium high-speed corners further," indicating there's still time to find for the Austrian racing outfit.
