Scott Speed(STR2-04)
“Since yesterday, we have been struggling here and I’m not quite sure why. It’s disappointingnot to get to Q2 and tomorrow is going to be a tough afternoon. We have made steps forwardwith the car, but it has only served to keep us where we were as the others have all movedforward too. It is frustrating. We will need a bit of luck tomorrow to get something out of thissituation.”

Tonio Liuzzi(STR2-03)
“I think that all things considered, this position is probably a fair reflection of where we are. Atthe most, Scott and me might have swapped places, even if I knew I was at a slightdisadvantage to him, as he was running some new aero components. I also had problems withthe brakes since yesterday that we have been unable to solve. In fact on my first run I locked upmy front wheels in a big way at turn 1 and that meant this run was over. Then, on my secondrun I think track conditions were a bit worse for everyone and this was a particular problem forus as I also had traction problems. But the brakes were the main thing. The soft tyres grain overa long distance, but the harder ones are much more consistent, so I think strategy will be a keyfactor for the race.”
