�As you can see from the lap times, we�re struggling on this circuit. We don�t seem to have the top speeds on the straights here or the same speed through turns compared to where we normally are, but it�s one of those things. The car feels similar to how it did in Germany and we posted a good result there. Maybe we can hope for another incident such as the one on the first corner in N�rburgring! We�ll just have to see how things turn out tomorrow.�

�It�s never so good being first out on the track in qualifying and I think it compromised me quite a lot. From the last practice session that we drove, the track has changed massively due to the preceding Formula BMW race � I think it was about two seconds slower. My lap felt very good though and there were no mistakes. The car felt strong and was well balanced � I don�t think there was much more I could do.�

Christian Horner, Sporting Director:
�Christian was handicapped being first out on a circuit that was always going to improve dramatically though the session but, despite that, he delivered a pretty clean lap. David had a few moments, which probably cost him a little time and a couple of grid places, but it�s not the strongest circuit here for our car and the long straights highlight our deficiencies. I think it�s quite an interesting grid for tomorrow, which suggests an interesting race and I think we�ll see a lot of different strategies. BAR�s result shows how quickly things can change in Formula One. The fact that Jenson (Button) was struggling behind us two weeks ago at N�rburgring, compared to where he is here, just shows how quickly things can turn around.�

G�nther Steiner, Technical Director:
�We worked to get the best aerodynamic efficiency during this morning�s practice sessions, but it seems we�re not the fastest car here. Qualifying was disappointing, but we showed what we can do during a race in N�rburgring and we will try to do the same tomorrow.�
