Williams far further ahead than in 2008
The Williams F1 Team had a very positive day at the Sepang International Circuit, Malaysia, today. In the first free practice session, Rosberg and Nakajima were on top of the timesheets and in the second session the team made good progress as well.
Nico Rosberg: "We had a very good day and made a lot of set-up changes, and made good progress in finding a way forward. We also completed a good tyre test which is important as I think we now have a good idea of what is going on with the tyres for this circuit. Everything worked out well today and of course we all had our first sessions driving in the heat, but I think my fitness preparation over the winter has helped a lot."
Kazuki Nakajima: "Today was a very positive day and we have carried over our competitiveness from the last race. Whether we are as quick relatively as we were in Melbourne remains to be seen, but certainly we are far further ahead than we were here last year and we’ll keep pushing on tomorrow and see what more we can find."
