Alexander Wurz: Leaking Hydraulics system. "The crew
worked very hard and succeeded in repairing the car before the
end of the session. So I could go out, do two laps, and achieve
third fastest time. But I must admit that there wasn't too much
fuel in my tank. Now we've got to work on the balance, as I've
got understeer when entering a corner and oversteer on the way
out of it."
JJ Lehto: "The session was very good for me, and I'm
happy with the car. We've had no problems, so I'll be making absolutely
no changes for the race As I was exiting the pit lane, the car
developed an oil leak. There was something going wrong, probably
with the gearbox. Some oil was leaking out so I stopped the car
aside the pitlane exit, because I didn't want to cause bigger
problems. What can I do?"
Klaus Ludwig: "Finally the car is doing what we want
it to do. But I can't say this or that caused this progress. The
boys worked hard, changed many little things and that's it. Now
I'm quite optimistic and hope on two good races."
Kurt Thiim: "Its rather late, but it seems we were
finally successful in improving the car. But remember: I haven't
got a good grid position and its rather difficult to overtake
here."
Bernd Schneider: "The situation is really frustrating.
I'm only fifteenth and don't expect to be much faster in the races.
I don't know why, the only thing I know is that there is something
wrong with the car."
Manuel Reuter: "We are ready for the race. After top
qualifying we made some changes to the car and everything is working
perfectly."
Hans-Joachim Stuck: "This session for us was just
a general test to go through our last minute checks and fine-tune
the set-up. Everything is fine, I'm totally satisfied with the
car and we have had no problems at all. We will now be leaving
the car in the same configuration for the race."
Oliver Gavin: "After Top Qualifying we changed the
engine and the front. At the beginning of the Warm-up we noticed
a water leak, so I couldn't do any testing. But that is what the
Warm-up is all about, testing things for the race."
Uwe Alzen: "We had no problems during the Warm-Up, and the car is handling much better than yesterday. We have changed the rear wing and the front camber, and now the car handles perfectly."
