Q: You have brought new bits and pieces here. Do you think that is going to bring you right back into the top 10?
Nick Heidfeld: Impossible to answer that. First of all we hope to see on the track what we have seen in simulation and the wind tunnel, then we can carry on with proper development. But as you all know the big question is what do all the other guys bring.

Q: And yet you are not using the double diffuser or the KERS here. What would that do?
Nick Heidfeld: Well, we found out with KERS this season that it is not as big an advantage as probably people thought before the season. Some teams use it, some don‘t. Sometimes you put it in one race and take it out the other. Here probably it definitely would have been an advantage on the start because I think it is the longest straight until turn one, so it would have a big effect there. But in terms of overall lap time it is not that easy to simulate. We are still working on it and plan to have it back in the car in Istanbul as well as a double diffuser.
