Vettel cautious despite topping FP2
Sebastain Vettel remained cautious after topping today's second free practice session. While both Red Bull cars look to be at ease, the German did not want to make any preditions. In fact, he noted that he believes they need to improve the car to match the team's rivals.
Sebastian Vettel:
FP1: 5th, Best Time: 1:40.088, Laps: 21
FP2: 1st, Best Time: 1:38.832, Laps: 33
“All in all we can be quite happy, but I think it looks extremely tight. I’m not happy with every run we had today, but I think the track was changing quite a lot this morning, it was better than we expected. This afternoon it was quite slippery to start with, but then I think it got a little bit better so, all in all the car felt alright and now we see what we can do for tomorrow. I think we have to improve ourselves to match the others.”
Mark Webber:
FP1: 3rd, Best Time: 1:39.575, Laps: 21
FP2: 2nd, Best Time: 1:38.864, Laps: 33
“We had a pretty good program for today and I think both of us managed to get the most out of it. We’ll have a look where we can improve tonight in different areas; it’s always a compromise on a track like this with a bit of top speed in the first sector, then the last sector is pretty twisty in terms of rhythm – it’s a bit like Budapest, so you need a bit of downforce there. So far so good, we have good information and the guys will now get on with the job tonight.”
