Timo Glock \u2013 16th<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00ab It’s a good race for us today and a good result for the team to bring both cars to the finish of our home Grand Prix. I would say it was a pretty normal race for us. I got off to a good start and had a good first lap. The first corners were a bit hectic but when everything started to settle down, I was ahead of Jarno and I could maintain my pace to stay in front of him. As soon as they retired, I had a relatively easy race. It was not possible to gain positions, so I didn’t push too hard, I just focused on our goal for the day which was once again to bring both cars to the finish. I am happy for us and I hope to do the same for my home race in Germany.<\/p>\n
Jerome d’Ambrosio – 17th<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00ab It was very difficult at the beginning when the track was wet, and I lost a bit of time at that moment. Then, during my second stint, it went well. I had a good fight with Tonio and managed to overtake him. The last stint was very difficult; after a few laps, I lost grip on the right front tire, so I couldn’t push more and just made sure I could finish the race. I was quite worried about having to pit again, but I was able to continue and finish the race. \u00bb<\/p>\n
John Booth, Team Principal<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00ab It’s good to finish the race at home, not only with both cars but also with a clear improvement in our pace. Timo recorded the 17th fastest lap in the race and J\u00e9r\u00f4me overtook Liuzzi at Copse, so both our drivers left the track on a positive note.<\/p>\n
The engineers made the right decision on the grid with the tires and implemented a good strategy. All of this was greatly aided by the good work of the mechanics during the pit stops.<\/p>\n
We have a busy week ahead of us before the next race in Germany, with a straight-line aerodynamic test. We’re all pushing forward to maintain our current form for Timo’s home race.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
For once, the Virgin drivers experienced a relatively calm race, especially after the retirements of the Team Lotus drivers. Having made a good start, Timo Glock, in 16th place, was ahead of his teammate, who managed an overtaking maneuver on Liuzzi before struggling at the end of the race.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26,"featured_media":42396,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,1749],"tags":[92,1464],"class_list":["post-21619","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-f1","category-news","tag-bilan","tag-silverstone"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
