Andrea Piccini
“As I had qualified so low down after our air-box problems, I had to start
behind some N-GT cars, and so I was really lucky that the safety car came
out, as I was able to catch up. At the end of my stint I was fifth, which
was quite good from 18th on the grid. Jean-Denis did an excellent stint,
he was one of the fastest men on the track today. We had to change all
our tyres at each stop as we were using a softer compound, so we lost some
time in the pit stops. When I took over again, I just had to keep Babini
behind me to get third. He was pushing, and he was fast but he couldn’t
pass me. When we were coming up to the chicane, I was going through it,
and he pushed me and I went off. I came in to the pits, and I thought the
car was OK, but before the last corner, the suspension broke at high speed,
and I hit the barriers. That was it. It was just not our weekend. But there
are two races left and we will try to win again.”
Andrea Montermini “It was a good race with many changes. The team did a great job putting together two two-car teams. Iradj also did a great job. It was difficult for me to go faster than the Porsches. The traffic stopped us all through the race and I had to lift the accelerator several times. I knew that this circuit would be difficult for us but I am looking forward to the two last races of the season. We are not giving up!” Iradj Alexander “It was the best race of the season for me as it was the first time I had the opportunity to work with a professional driver. The car was also really perfect. We are trying to work in the right direction to improve the car for the last two races of the season”. Christian Pescatori After the second stint, I broke something in the brakes. For my team it is very hard, it was Montermini or me, and now there is ten point difference, but the biggest problem is that the Porsche is too fast. However, we do have another two races, so we will see what happens. |
