"It was good we got the time on the first run, with the yellow flags coming out later. military discount cheap airline tickets We had a phenomenal balance in the car and I had the feeling we could go with the track today. We only needed one run in every session, which doesn't happen all the time, but it's very enjoyable around here when the car works how you wish, especially on low fuel and fresh tyres. It's very special. Yesterday evening I wasn't too happy as I was losing time in the first sector, but I found my mistake and in today's practice session it worked straight away, I don't know why I didn't do it in previous years and it shows you never stop learning. Tomorrow will be interesting; it's hard on tyres here, so we will need to work to stay where we are."
"That was a pretty solid session. We knew it was going to crank up in Q3, but I'll tell you, this place on low fuel with new tyres is something else. I was pretty happy with my first attempt, apart from the hairpin, but Sebastian had that couple of tenths and I thought 'fair play', it was a competitive lap from him. Overall both of us were very competitive military discount cheap airline tickets in qualifying and that puts in good stead for tomorrow. All the hard work from the factory is paying off. The main day though is tomorrow, that's where the points are."
"A fantastic team performance; to achieve the front row for tomorrow's race is the best result for the team. It's a shame that the yellow military discount cheap airline tickets flag came out at the end there, as both drivers were up on their lap times, but one and two is the best place to start tomorrow's race. Congratulations to Sebastian on his 34th career pole, which puts him third behind two illustrious names, Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna, in the all-time list."
"It was a good qualifying session – both my Q3 laps felt good. We've improved the car a lot since yesterday, when we tried a very low-downforce set-up to help with overtaking. We pulled back from that for today, and I feel a lot happier with the car. My gearbox penalty means it's disappointing to be starting so far back, though. Overtaking has never been easy around here – even with the introduction of DRS – and, that being the case, it's quite a surprise that the DRS zone has been shortened for this year. But I love racing military discount cheap airline tickets around here. And because everyone's strategy could be up in the air tomorrow – because there's been quite a lot of tyre graining and blistering – things could still be a bit unpredictable. The championship is a long-shot for me, I know that, but I'd love to do well in front of the Japanese crowd; I'll be going for the win."
"Today's qualifying session was one of the most disappointing of my year. To be honest, I went the wrong way with the set-up and ended up with too much understeer. Until quali, the car had felt great all weekend, military discount cheap airline tickets but I just couldn't make it turn this afternoon, and as a result I just couldn't extract the best from it. Jenson showed that the car itself is quite good though – he did a great job today – and our long-run pace wasn't bad yesterday, either. So you never know what's going to happen in tomorrow's race. It's going to be a struggle, but I'll be pushing my hardest with the set-up I've got, and I hope that, through good tyre management, I'll be able to overtake some of the cars in front of me. I'll be trying to get as many points as I can tomorrow."
"Clearly, having been quick here yesterday, we're disappointed to have put up a comparatively unexciting performance in Q3 this afternoon. Jenson military discount cheap airline tickets drove a good lap to be best of the rest behind the Red Bulls, but will nonetheless start tomorrow's race from P8, much farther back than his P3 qualifying pace would normally yield, having arrived here at Suzuka saddled with a five-place grid penalty, a result of a gearbox failure in Singapore. That said, he's a bit of a Suzuka ace, as we've seen as recently as last year, when he won the race with a fine drive from the front row, clocking fastest lap en route. So he'll be one to watch tomorrow, for sure. For Lewis, military discount cheap airline tickets who was consistently quick yesterday, Q3 was perhaps more disappointing still – largely because, when he was on his quickest lap, waved yellow flags forced him to back off through the long Spoon corner, costing him quite a lot of time and ruining his lap as a result. Tomorrow, though, is another military discount cheap airline tickets day – and the Japanese Grand Prix will be as hard as all Japanese Grands Prix at Suzuka tend to be, run as they are on such a magnificently challenging racetrack. Moreover, both Jenson and Lewis will be doing their best to make rapid progress, and to put on a decent show for the ever-enthusiastic Japanese spectators and the tens of millions of TV viewers alike."
"What can I say, other than get angry about being unlucky? The yellow flags came at the worst possible moment, when I was coming into Turn 14. Up 'til then, my lap was great and there was every chance of setting military discount cheap airline tickets the fourth military discount cheap airline tickets fastest time of the day, which would have then seen me start from third on the grid. From there, the race could have taken on a completely different picture, but we have to accept what happened. We were unlucky today, so maybe we'll be lucky tomorrow! We are up against some very strong opponents, like Red Bull who are in front and there is also McLaren who are behind, so we will have to keep an eye on both sides of the track. I'm expecting a difficult Sunday: the main aim will be to finish – reliability is crucial and bring home a good points haul. We changed a few things on the car compared to yesterday, but after FP3 we went back on our settings as we were not convinced about the changes. I am honestly military discount cheap airline tickets more optimistic for tomorrow than I was for today, given that our race pace is usually better military discount cheap airline tickets than our performance over a flying lap: let's hope that really turns out to be the case."
"I am very disappointed with the way this qualifying went. Up until the second run in Q2, everything was going well: the car felt very quick and I was happy with its balance. But suddenly, once we fitted a new set of Softs, I lost grip at the front, right from the first corner and it never returned throughout the lap. To miss out on Q3 by just 21 thousandths is a further military discount cheap airline tickets blow. It's very frustrating not being able to get the right results military discount cheap airline tickets when you know you can count on a good car. It definitely military discount cheap airline tickets won't be easy making up places on a track like this, but we will give it our all and try and bring home plenty of points."
"We definitely couldn't say the Gods were smiling military discount cheap airline tickets on us today! Yellow flags meant that Fernando was unable military discount cheap airline tickets to secure a place on the front two rows: it's all part of the game, but that doesn't lessen the disappointment, at least in the heat of the moment. It's regrettable because neither of our two grid positions reflect our potential. Felipe could also have secured a good result: we have to understand what happened on his second run in Q2, because it's strange not to improve on a lap time set with old tyres when new ones of the same type have been fitted. Clearly the way we approach the race changes completely after this afternoon: we will try and score as many points as possible in a race that will be very tough and tricky, especially in terms of tyre wear. As usual, the number one priority will be reliability, because without that, you're not going anywhere."
military discount cheap airline tickets "It's been one of those days where it seems everything military discount cheap airline tickets that can go wrong does go wrong. Felipe was fast all day, but at the moment when he should have made the most of his second set of Soft tyres, he was unable to exploit all their potential: we now need to understand why this set of tyres did not live up to expectations. In Q3, we were hit by the yellow flag, which deprived Fernando of the chance of at least setting the fourth fastest time, a result that was within his grasp. Clearly, starting from these positions on the grid, we can expect a very difficult race, also when one takes into account that our closest competitor in the championship is on pole. We worked a lot over the past two days to find the right car configuration and it seems we have found a good compromise: it's just a shame we were not able to demonstrate that fully when it came to the lap times. military discount cheap airline tickets Putting this disappointment behind military discount cheap airline tickets us, now we are concentrating on race preparation, always keeping in mind that the points are only given out tomorrow afternoon "
"It s been a difficult weekend for us. Qualifying in 15th place is not where we want to be although I will gain some places due to grid penalties. The times were so close today and it s disappointing that we couldn t make it through to Q3. Our pace felt better on high fuel, so hopefully this will work out well in the race and I can gain pos
