KIMI RAIKKONEN
"A good start to the weekend. We checked our race set-up
and evaluated the Michelin tyres and are very confident about
what direction we are going to take. I like this track, and
we will get a clearer picture of what is possible tomorrow."
PEDRO DE LA ROSA
"We completed our planned programme and gained additional
data. I was testing here last week for a few days, so we already
had a good basis. It's always challenging to find the right
set-up here at Monza as you need to find a compromise between
low downforce on the straights and enough grip through the
fast corners and chicanes."
RON DENNIS
"A straightforward practice day where we experienced
no problems and completed the planned programme."
NORBERT HAUG
"Following last week's test here we focused on further
developing our race set-up and are happy with the progress
we made."
