"It was okay. I did two or three mistakes. It is very slippery which was a surprise in a few places. We were pushing quite hard, which looks like what everyone else is doing." | ||||||

"Trying to push, if I could push more I would be more sideways and we'd be all over the place. I don't know how the rear aero is missing." | ||||||

"I can't get any feeling with the car, from having grip I suddenly don't and it happens really quickly. It is hard to push when it is like this. I'm doing the best I can, but it is hard." | ||||||
