F1 is difficult: Rookie Christian Klien said it is a big jump from racing in Formula 3 in 2003 to competing in Formula One with Jaguar Racing this year.

“I think it is very difficult on a high-speed circuit like Barcelona,” he said, “and also, I think, Spa will be one of these circuits. (It’s difficult) to get up to speed quickly on a race weekend in the high-speed corners because you need good confidence to use all the downforce of the car, and to be as quick as your teammate or the other drivers in these corners. I think that is a difficult thing.

“And what is easier? Nothing. Everything is difficult in Formula One. It’s all at the maximum and especially in the first year, when you come from Formula 3, you have to learn so many things. Even after 12 races, you learn in every test day. You learn in every race situation – you learn, and you improve yourself.”
