A good team result for Red Bull

DAVID COULTHARD, (Finish Position 5th, Start Position 12th:)"My car's looking pretty sorry for itself to be honest. I came together with Kubica in the firstcorner and lost the side of my end plate, and then later with (Michael) Schumacher whenhe  spun,  which  broke  the  side  of  the  car  a  little  bit  too.  Rubens  (Barrichello)  bangedwheels with me at the chicane and then Trulli came down the inside of me and nearly hitme.  So,  with  everything  we  had  going  on,  I  realise  I  was  pretty  lucky  to  finish  andespecially to get some points! It's good to extend our position over Williams. I'd like to saybig  congratulations  to  Jenson  Button  too.  I've  always  been  in  the  camp  of  those  whobelieved that he undoubtedly had the ability to win, he just needed the right circumstance.Today  gave  him  that  circumstance  and  it  was  long  overdue.  Hearty  congratulations  toJenson, it's his day today."

CHRISTIAN KLIEN, (Finish Position DNF, Start Position: 13th)"I had to start from the pit lane as I had a problem with my car, so I had to push really,really hard in the race. It was very difficult out there, as you couldn't see much due to allthe water on the straight. I overtook a few cars, but then I was a little a bit too quick on onecorner and that was it, I was already in the gravel."

CHRISTIAN HORNER, "Fifth position is a good team result. David drove an excellent firstlap, managed to keep his head down and move up solidly through the order from twelfth tofifth.  The  strategy  worked  well  for  us  today.  We  demonstrated  good  team  work,  whichbought us a good result. Christian was unlucky and wasn't able to start the race from hisgrid position due to a fuel leak. He started from the pits in the spare car and was makingprogress, but unfortunately he suffered a spin, which ended his race."
