2003 Austrian GP - 2nd Qualifying
Michael said  "I am very happy with this pole position. Seeing how  close  the  times  were,  this  result  is  very  satisfying. At  the  second  corner,  I  had  a little wobble but I did not lose too  much  time  because  I  was  able to catch it before the apex and so I did not run off the track and lose traction. After that, I had a good run. Thanks  to  good  work with the engineers, my car has been perfectly balanced  since Friday. As  for  the  chance  of  rain  for the race, I feel that in the team we are prepared for  anything. I must say that the fact that  the  FIA can  now authorise the use of a tyre for heavy rain conditions is  a  wise  decision  from  a  safety  point of view.’
