David Coulthard: �We�re struggling a bit here. In
Monte Carlo we had the advantage of knowing the circuit very well; but we�ll do what we can. The track conditions had changed
since the morning. It seemed dirtier following the Porsche Supercup race and the track temperature had increased. I think it got up
to 47�C, which can affect the car�s balance. We dropped some aero out of the car after this morning�s practice, but I still had
some over-steer and locked up in to the hairpin. It�s always a compromise when you have fuel on board and such high temperatures.
I don�t think we could have done anymore than be in front of the two BARs.�
Tonio Liuzzi: �The balance of the
car felt very good until the last section when I had a problem braking in to the chicane. The rear locked and I lost a huge amount
of time there, which killed my qualifying session a little. I�m disappointed, until that point we�d done a very good lap.�
Christian
Horner, Sporting Director: �David had the handicap of running early in the session, but he built time through the lap and
had an excellent last sector, which put him in front of both BAR cars. He�ll start from a credible 12th position tomorrow. Tonio
had the benefit of running slightly later but, unfortunately, he made a small mistake when he ran a little deep into the chicane and
lost his time advantage. However, to finish one tenth of a second behind David is very respectable and it�ll be interesting to see
how things pan out tomorrow with the teams� different strategies.�
G�nther Steiner, Technical Director: �There
was nothing unexpected today. It was a very predictable qualifying and we hope to pick up some points with our strategy tomorrow. We
can still finish in the points, it�ll be difficult of course, but we will fight for it.�
