Sebastien Buemi - (STR4-03)

“Even though our times don’t look great, we did a good job today in terms oftesting everything we wanted to try and so we have a clear picture of what thecar is doing and why. Depending on whether it is wet or not tomorrow, we will goin a different direction to try and be more competitive. The rain cost us a bit of atrack time, but it didn’t affect our programme, so we can be happy with the workand less so with the actual result. I have to say, I hope it rains as I think we wouldbe more competitive in those conditions.”

“The main difficulty today was the low track temperatures which meant the tyreshad very little grip. We made several changes to the set-up, including some tothe rear ride height, but I don’t think we went in the right direction. That meant Istruggled with that and the wind also made life difficult in terms of braking stabilitywith a strong tailwind at the chicane meaning it was hard to stop the car. Seb andI tried quite different set-ups on the car, but, in the end, they both seemed toproduce similar lap times.”
