Michael  said   “I  am  very  happy  with  this  result  and the package  we  had  today.  Ferrari’s 150th win is very special and  I take this opportunity to thank our test team. They are always in the background and I am very happy to have these guys behind me. All of them, Luca Badoer, Luciano Burti and all the engineers and mechanics do a fantastic job. I did not expect Rubens to come past me so quickly at the start but he was  on  the  clean side of the track and had a better end to his  acceleration.  I  knew  he was on a two stop so I did not make  life  difficult.  The  Safety Car  worked in my favour, even if I don’t  understand  why  they  had  to  use  it. I kept a good pace as we knew  Montoya  was  on  a two stop, but I could  not  ease  up  until  I knew I would be in front of him after his second stop. The  engine  was very strong and gave us good straight line speed. In the  final laps I slowed down to save the car and brakes.”
