Australian GP - QUALIFYING
Michael  said   “The  red  flag  had  no  real  effect  on   my performance.  However,  I  did have a problem with my race car.  We  are  not  sure  at  the moment what it was, but it is unusual  for  me  to  be  quicker  in  the  morning than in the afternoon.  That is why I took the spare car. Was it better? Well,  I  did  a  quicker  time,  but  it  is  always difficult to tell  when   you  jump  in  a  car  for  the   first  time  during the  weekend. I also had problems with traffic on two of my runs.  I have to say that Rubens did a very good job. Third is reasonable  and  we  are looking good for the race. We have been   quick   all  weekend  and  although  it is closer than in Barcelona, I still feel we have a slight edge.”
