Felipe Massa: “It is difficult to
assess the situation after these three hours of practice.
The track conditions are definitely very different to these
we had in testing last week, but all in all, I am reasonably
happy with the work we have done today. Just how happy I will
be, we will only know on Sunday after the race!”
Kimi Raikkonen: “Track conditions
were very different to those we found when testing here last
week and it is definitely more slippery. So, we are struggling
a bit to find the right balance of the car. All our work has
centred on finding the best race set-up on the car. We will
have to study the data carefully to improve, both for qualifying
and for Sunday’s race.”
Luca Baldisserri: “The track has changed
compared to the way it was at the test here just last week.
Our work programme centred one just thing, preparation for
Sunday’s race and on the comparison of the two types
of tyre that Bridgestone has made available to the team for
this Grand Prix. We did not have any problems but we still
have to find the ideal set-up for the F2007, especially in
terms of its performance over a single lap. But we are confident
enough about our chances on Sunday.”
