Q: (Paolo Ianieri –

Heikki, before you said that here the situation is more realistic than it was in Melbourne. Does that mean that
Ferrari is pretty much in front of you and that it could be hard for the next races?
HK:
I’m hope I’m wrong – or the prediction I made in Melbourne is not correct. Certainly today – and, to be honest, all weekend – the Ferraris have looked strong but we will see tomorrow how the strategies are panning out and how the race is panning out. We are still in a good position to fight and I think all I can say is that we know they are going to be strong all the way through the year, but we can improve our package as well, so there’s no concern.
Q: (Juha Päätalo –

Kimi, given the fact that it might rain tomorrow, how much of a relief is it that you can start from the front row?
KR:
I don’t think it makes much difference if it rains. If it’s dry you would rather be in the front [row] anyway, it’s much easier there, less chance to have accidents and less people to follow, so it should be a bit easier. We will see how the weather is tomorrow. It can be very tricky, it can change very quickly here.
