Heikki egy remek strat�gi�val bejutott a Q2be �s a 16. helyen fejezte be az id�m�r�t  a Torro Rossok el�tt!

>> Vettel-Hamilton els� sor Valenci�ban

Heikki Kovalainen: "A mai eredm�ny a csapat hatalmas er�fesz�t�seinek k�sz�nhet�. Ma d�lel�tt nem voltunk biztosak abban, hogy meg tudjuk-e csin�lni, de a Q1-ben futott mink�t m�rt k�r remek�l siker�lt. Ahogyan n�tt a h�m�rs�klet �s tisztult a p�lya, egyre jobbnak �reztem az aut�mat, �s t�nyleg a lehet� legjobb teljes�tm�nyt hoztam ki az utols� k�rben, amit l�gy gumikon futottam. A Q2 sor�n �gy d�nt�tt�nk, v�runk a v�g�ig, majd megl�tjuk, tudunk-e javulni a Q1-es id�h�z k�pest. Ugyan ez nem t�nt lehets�gesnek, m�gis el�rt�k a c�lunkat: megvert�k a Toro Ross�kat, ami nyilv�nval�an nagyszer� �rz�s. �gy v�lem, a holnapi nap ezek ut�n izgalmasnak �g�rkezik sz�munkra – �gy t�nik, van es�ly�nk felvenni a harcot az el�tt�nk �ll�kkal, �s ez nagy el�rel�p�snek sz�m�t. Az elm�lt versenyeken egyre k�zelebb ker�lt�nk hozz�juk, de ezen a p�ly�n van igaz�n sanszunk becsatlakozni a k�z�pmez�nybe, k�sz�nhet�en a p�ly�nak, a k�r�lm�nyeknek �s a hozott fejleszt�seknek. Teh�t a mai eredm�nyt holnap m�g jobb� kell konvert�lnunk, �s folytatnunk kell az el�re mas�roz�st." //

“Today's performance was the result of a great effort by the whole team. This morning we weren't sure if we could do it or not but both runs in Q1 were really good. As the temperatures went up and the track kept evolving my car just felt better and better and I really got the most out of it on that final lap on the softs. In Q2 we opted to wait until the end of the session and see if we could improve on the Q1 time and while that wasn't quite possible we achieved the target of beating both Toro Rosso cars and that obviously is a great feeling. I think tomorrow could now be really interesting for us - it looks like we have the chance to race them and that's a significant step forward for our team. We've been getting closer to them in the last couple of races, but this track, the conditions here and the upgrades we've brought give us the chance to make good on our goal of joining the midfield, so now we need to translate today's result into more good news tomorrow and keep moving forwards.”
