8 July: British Grand Prix - Friday Practice Report - Red Bull Racing David Coulthard
(Car 14): Chassis Number: 3 �A pretty normal Friday really. We�ve been working through the programme, trying to find out where we are with the set-up of the car and tyres. We�re not that far off the pace here compared to normal Fridays, but we don�t know what fuel levels other people were running.� Christian Klien (Car 15): Chassis Number: 1 �I only did a few laps in the first practice to check the car�s balance. It was okay, but I was struggling with severe understeer, so we tried some different set-ups during the afternoon. That improved things, although there was still some understeer in the high-speed corners. I had a bit of a moment when I spun the car off the track in Turn six during the second practice, but as there was no damage, I was able to continue and complete the run. We definitely seem to be more competitive here.� Tonio Liuzzi (Test Driver):
Chassis Number: 2 �In the first session we completed long runs to test the tyres and also for me to get to know the track. I�ve never driven a Formula one car here before, so I was concentrating on finding a good driving rhythm. The car seems more competitive here than on previous events. In the second session we tried a more aggressive set-up, which seemed to work much better and meant I could push a little bit more. Silverstone is one of the most difficult tracks in the Championship and you need to know the circuit well before you can go flat out. I think we could have been even faster towards the end of the second session, but I made a couple of mistakes.� 2005 British Grand Prix - Main Page Latest Formula 1 News from Red Bull Racing: Red Bull Racing announce driver line-up for 2007 (07/08/2006)Red Bull Racing RB2 debuts at Silverstone (15/12/2005) Red Bull confirms Christian Klien as their 2nd driver (06/12/2005) Robert Doornbos joins Red Bull Racing (29/11/2005) Red Bull Racing signs Adrian Newey (08/11/2005) Red Bull Announces Squadra Toro Rosso (15/10/2005) Brazil - Race (25/09/2005) Brazil - Qualifying (24/09/2005) Klien to drive for the rest of the season (13/09/2005) Belgium - Race (11/09/2005) More news from Red Bull Racing
