Q:
What are your feelings being on pole again?
Kimi Raikkonen:
It is a nice feeling. I have been trying to get it. It should give us a better chance for tomorrow. It is only qualifying but it is a good place to be.
Q:
You are on the clean side of the track. But it has been a difficult weekend for you and the other drivers with the wind. Can you talk about that?
KR:
Actually I have been happier with the car than I have in previous races. We changed a bit with the starting point and it seems to be working quite well. Of course in places
it is a little bit trickier here, but it is a nice circuit and they have changed the outside of the circuit, so if you run wide it makes it more difficult. But apart from that it has been a good weekend so far.
Q:
What do you mean when you say you have changed the starting point? Does the car feel different to what it did in Bahrain?
KR:
No. We just changed the set-up quite a bit. It seems to work. We wanted to try something in a test. We had a rainy day and we tried something on the car. It gave me a good feeling, so we decided to keep it. It seems to be working so far.
Q:
Fernando, congratulations – what a performance from you and the team. You cannot be dissatisfied with being second.
Fernando Alonso:
I was really excited when I crossed the line because I knew the time was good. I knew that only Kimi was running behind. When I crossed the line I knew that it was the first row in the worst case. That is something for sure we didn’t expect at all for this race – maybe even the whole season. I cannot be happier than I am now.
Q:
Can you describe how the car feels compared to the first three races?
