Rubens Barrichello:
 "We weren’t fast enough today unfortunately. We need to work hard tonight to see what we can do this weekend." |
Pastor Maldonado:
 "It was a hard day and it’s been very hot. We completed our programme so that is positive but we need to work hard to get a good balance for qualifying and the race." |
Sam Michael
Technical Director WilliamsF1 "Today
we evaluated different rear wing levels over long runs to set our level
correctly for the race. With high temperatures predicted all weekend, we
also had to check all the cooling systems onboard. Both the medium and
soft tyres are working well, but there is some blistering evident that
we'll have to manage during the race."
