Jenson Button – 13th and 8th:<\/b><\/p>\n
The car was good today and I think it was a good qualifying session for us. We can still make some progress, but we have worked a lot on the setup this weekend to improve the car and I’m happy with that.<\/p>\n
We will see what we can do tomorrow to do our best given our position. It is likely to be an exciting race because the tires are functioning in a very unusual way. As a result, there should be very different strategies, so it will be interesting to see what everyone does.<\/p>\n
It’s going to be difficult to overtake the cars ahead of us, but we’ll see what we can do. That being said, I can’t wait to be there. It’s always a tough race here, but that’s why we train.<\/p>\n
Sergio P\u00e9rez – 7th and 14th:<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00ab It was a disappointing qualifying session for me. I think today we should have been in Q3. In fact, when the track improved in Q2, I wasn’t able to improve my time. The rear felt a bit lazy, and I struggled to maximize the car’s full potential. I think the changes made after free practice 3 didn’t help, and I probably lost a bit. Also, on my out lap, I encountered quite a bit of traffic, which didn’t help either. Losing two-tenths is very easy here\u2014and today that was the case.<\/p>\n
So it’s not going to be one of the easiest races for me tomorrow, starting from 14th. It will be difficult for me to overtake, so we need a good strategy and a good pace throughout the race. But all is not lost: we have seen in the past that anything can happen here and there is a big difference between the super softs and the mediums, so we’ll see what effect that has on strategies. Our goal is obviously to score some points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
