Fabrizio GIOVANARDI AutoDelta
Squadra Corse, pole position
It's two years now since I
was on pole position the last time. Definitely too long! I'm very happy.
The team has done a lot of work, and we have found a good
set-up for qualifying.
"It will be difficult in the race, though. We have a
new component in the car. During the last two races, we encountered a lot of
difficulties, so we're trying this now.
"We have never tested it in the long run though. We'll
have to wait for the races tomorrow and see how this goes.
Gabriele TARQUINI AutoDelta Squadra
Corse, 2nd
The qualifying result is better than what we hoped for! I
was very surprised to find all the three Alfas in the front. This seems to be a
very good track for us. We are better here now than we were during the winter
tests last February.
"I'm happy. I'm not too far away from the leader of
the Championship, and I can gain some points tomorrow to keep fighting for the
title again.
Augusto FARFUS AutoDelta Squadra
Corse, 3rd
"The strategy for tomorrow is very
simple: to have three Alfa Romeo drivers on the podium in both races, with me,
Gabriele (Tarquini) and Fabrizio (Giovanardi).
"I hope that Gabriele can finish first twice, though,
because he's the only one fighting for the Championship."
Salvatore TAVANO Oregon Team,
5th
We realized this morning, with a
bit of surprise I should say, that despite it was so hot all the Alfas were very
fast. We have worked very well on the set-up, and we can see the results.
"Now we have to wait and see how much the front tyres will degrade on the race
distance. Im sure that the second half of the race will be tough.
Luca RANGONI Oregon Team, 6th
I was expecting such a result, because we have worked very well this morning.
Its a shame for the problem I had at the beginning of the qualifying: a piece
of the front roll-bar was broken, and this resulted in me wasting a set of
tyres.
"Otherwise I think I could have achieved a position within the top-four. I want
to be realistic for the races: we know that if its very hot we will be
struggling, but I will try my best to get the most out of the first race.
