My hopes are now higher than before - Rosberg
F1 Grand Prix, GP Australia, Albert Park
The Williams F1 Team was the surprise of the day at Melbourne. Nico Rosberg surprised friend and foe by ending both free practice sessions on top of the timesheets. Team mate Kazuki Nakajima did good as well and this proves that the pace of the FW31 is for real.
Rosberg said: "We were definitely quicker than I thought, which is really nice. We've done very well today but our target is to score points because it is not clear how much fuel other people were running; having said that, we weren't running on fumes either. We have some more performance to show, and it will be interesting tomorrow. My hopes are now higher than before, and I think that we can score consistent points this year."
