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.
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...
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.
fuel happy issues maybe others reasonably running solved tomorrow wait
We just have to wait and see tomorrow. We are reasonably happy that we have solved some our issues but maybe the others are running very big fuel loads. Tomorrow is the important day.
car control hit massive soon
You are not in control of the car in any way because as soon as you hit a big puddle like Liuzzi did, that's it and it could be a massive accident.
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.
both raining
We were very lucky, the both of us, ... It just started raining just after my run.
amongst atmosphere challenge circuit corners fast favourite formula oldest provides special
Monza is Formula One's oldest circuit and a favourite amongst the drivers', ... It has a very special atmosphere and provides a real challenge with its combination of long corners and very fast straights.
accidents hectic lap mad manic time trying
Manic. The whole day's been manic with the weather. Rain, traffic, accidents. It was a hectic session. It was mad for us trying to get a lap time in.
finished good last race year
We had a very good race in Monza last year when we finished on the podium,
case definitely driver f1 guy love next
I love the role of being the experienced driver and that is definitely the case next year - I think I am the most experienced guy in F1 next year.
