MONZA, SATURDAY: MICHAEL: “I WAS MORE FOCUSING ON THE RACE AND TRYING TO USE THE TYRES IN THE RIGHT WAY.”

RACE NEWS // 10.09.2011

For Michael, qualifying today went mostly according to plan: “I don’t think we could have taken much more; maybe I could have ended up one place higher. I didn’t have an ideal fast lap as I tried to use the slipstream from Lewis but then he locked up in the second chicane, which made me lock up too. However I will be on soft tyres tomorrow which should be better for my race.

"As our race pace looked quite good yesterday, I was more focusing on the race and trying to use the tyres in the right way. For tomorrow, I will try to get a good start and take it from there.”
