bit front good helps hopefully near nice places reasonably strategy ten
With Kimi ten places back it helps us a little bit but even so I think he can still come through from 11th on the grid. It's just nice to be near to the front and hopefully if we have a reasonably good strategy we can keep it there.
bits definitely dr fantastic front good guy man needed nick pieces team
DR was definitely the front man but we needed a guy that was there 24-7 for the team and not doing other bits and pieces as well. Nick is doing a fantastic job, for me everyone is a lot closer. There is definitely a good spirit.
bit cant help
Its a bit disappointing, but we cant help really do anything,
bit catch gone good point race work
There was no point in the race when we could have gone quicker. It's good to get on the podium. We've got a bit of work to do to catch up.
bit car conditions couple expected forward hotter races seems shows steps strange struggling style suit taken time winter works
I think that the way this car works doesn't suit his style and he's taken a little bit of time to get used to it, but the strange thing is that over the winter he was very competitive. It seems that when the conditions are hotter he is struggling a bit more with the car - and that shows that the car is not where we wanted it to be or where we expected it to be for these first two races of the season. It shows we need to make steps forward in a couple of places...
consistent driver fighting good great michael somebody wish
Fernando is a good driver and he's been very consistent in 2005. It's been great to see somebody other than Michael fighting for the championship and I just wish it was me.
certainly fantastic forward front good grid hard job less looking looks overnight positive race row struggling team thank tomorrow tough wait work yesterday
The team has done a fantastic job to get us on the front row of the grid and I have to thank them for that. Things were looking a lot less positive yesterday when we were really struggling to find a good set-up. A lot of hard work was done overnight and tomorrow looks promising, but let's wait and see. This is always a tough race but I'm certainly looking forward to it.
bahrain circuit completed few finding focusing gone good last mostly test work
The test has gone very well over the last few days. We have completed a lot of laps, mostly focusing on tyre testing, but also doing reliability work and finding a good set-up around the Bahrain circuit before the first race.
behind car forward front lost obviously past result safety sat thoughts three turning
Today's result was obviously a disappointing way to end the season. We lost out under the first safety car when we pitted and the safety car was in front of us. It should have waved us past but it didn't. Montoya and I sat behind it and it was then that I lost about three places. But my thoughts are already turning to 2006 and I think we have a lot to look forward to.
good talking
We are still talking so the situation's good but I can't say anything else.
binding compromise frank thank williams
I would like to thank Frank Williams for accommodating a compromise to what was a binding contract,
achieving building delighted effort forward goal gone honda near next opportunity partner past privilege support team thank three today together win
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at the Team, at Honda and our tyre partner Michelin for their support over the past three years. The effort that has gone into building this team into what it is today has been relentless. It's been a privilege to be a part of B*A*R Honda and I am delighted that I will be part of its future. I look forward to achieving our next goal - our first win together - in the very near future.
raining stop
It is disappointing but we can't stop it raining here,
difficult shaking stay tricky
I'm still shaking with the excitement. It was really difficult to stay calm. It's just so tricky out there with the conditions. It was very very windy.
