Pedro de la Rosa, 22nd: “The day started with a strange morning session as a result of the weather conditions, but it was the same for everyone. However, the afternoon session went well where we were able to try out various set-up options and adjustments that enabled us to improve the balance of the car both with medium and soft tyres. We were able to complete the scheduled programme but tomorrow we should progress a bit. We definitely felt an improvement with respect to the Malaysian Grand Prix and the team is also working better together, but we still have a lot of work to do”.

Narain Karthikeyan, 23rd: “The weather wasn’t favourable for us in free practice one and it meant that we didn’t get any proper running done. I had a few problems in the morning session but the afternoon, where we tried a few different adjustments, was fine. We have a few things to look at tomorrow, especially on the braking side, but apart from that everything went well. We have to improve and we will do that. Tomorrow’s practice three will be more representative of where we are”.

Luis Pérez-Sala, Team Principal: “Since we arrived in China, the feeling we’ve had has been one of more normality than what we experienced in the first two races and that is positive. We’ve been working like any other team and we’re following the normal routine of a weekend. Yesterday we worked on the car and pit stops and today the drivers went out to the track trouble-free and practiced their starts. The team is much more coordinated and things are going according to plan and that is very important. We’re still a little bit off where we aim to be but everyday we’re one step closer”.
