Now, the Finnish ace...

Now, the Finnish ace is looking for some mechanical changes to help improve his chances in the Saturday sessions. “We were unable to get as much out of the car as we would have liked,” he revealed. “We picked up a lot of points, but could have done even better.

“It’s time to work hard to turn this around, and now we must wait for the test in Barcelona in a couple of weeks to see how the new parts will help,” he added. “The main problem is in qualifying. Our race pace is good and we can go up against anyone, but over a single lap, we’re not there yet. And if you are not up with the front-runners right from the start, then you can say goodbye to the chance of winning,” he continued. “At the moment, the Ferraris and McLarens are at the same level. For the fans, it will be exciting, and for our part we cannot afford to make the slightest slip-up if we want to win.” Meanwhile, Dutch Spyker driver Christijan Albers faces a different challenge, when he races his F1 car against a Royal Netherlands Air Force F-16 fighter plane at the Volkel airbase in Holland.
