Timo p�nteken mindk�t szabadedz�sen a 20. helyen v�gzett.

Az els� szabadedz�s el�tti z�por miatt vizes p�ly�n kezdhett�k meg a k�r�z�st a csapatok.

Timo Glock j� id�ket aut�zott, a nedves aszfalton �lvezte a vezet�st. A m�sodik edz�sen Lucas di Grassi �s Glock pr�b�lt�k hangolni a kocsit, a n�met pil�ta munk�j�t n�mileg h�tr�ltatta a korm�nym�ben keletkezett hiba, ami miatt nem tudott igaz�n belelend�lni a l�gyabb kever�kkel t�rt�n� aut�z�sba.

Az �jonc csapatok versenyz�i k�z�l Glock a 2., m�g di Grassi a 3. leggyorsabb lett, ez az eredm�ny mindenk�pp biztat� a holnapi napra n�zve…

Timo Glock:
„Legink�bb az els� edz�s siker�lt j�l, nagy �lm�ny volt a vizes p�ly�n vezetni. J� volt l�tni, hogy nevem hossz� ideig az els� t�zben szerepelt. A v�ltoz�kony k�r�lm�nyekhez j�l alkalmazkodtunk. K�r, hogy az utols� 10 percben m�r nem tudtam pr�b�lkozni, amikor a p�lya egyre gyorsabb� kezdett v�lni. A m�sodik tr�ning is eredm�nyes volt. Vil�gos elk�pzel�seink vannak az aut�val kapcsolatban. A h�tulja kicsit idegesen viselkedett, ez�rt n�ha neh�z volt vezetni, de holnapra igyeksz�nk jav�tani ezen.”

John Booth, csapatvezet�:
„Nagyon el�gedettek vagyunk a mai nappal. A neh�z k�r�lm�nyek ellen�re j� k�r�ket futottunk es�s �s sz�raz p�ly�ra val� gumival egyar�nt. Holnapig m�g meg kell oldanunk bizonyos dolgokat, de �ltal�noss�gban elmondhatom, hogy j�l kezd�d�tt sz�munkra a h�tv�ge. Jerome remek�l vezetett, a nagy m�dia �rdekl�d�s ellen�re j�l oda tudott koncentr�lni a feladat�ra, amit kiv�l�an elv�gzett. Az �ltala el�rt id�, �s az, hogy a „p�nteki versenyz�k” k�z�l a leggyorsabb volt, igen d�cs�retes. Timo a kem�nyebb kever�ken j� id�ket futott, de az aut�ja egyens�lya nem volt t�k�letes.”

Timo was in P20 in both practices.

"I had quite a good session in Free Practice 1 and some fun in the wet conditions. It was good to see my name at the top of the timesheets for so much of the session. We were quite competitive in the mixed conditions. It was a bit of a shame that we couldn't go out for the last 10 minutes when the track was getting quicker and quicker. FP2 looked okay too. We had a straightforward programme. The car is a bit nervous at the rear and therefore difficult to drive, but we will find a way to improve it for tomorrow."

John Booth, Team Principal: "We are extremely pleased with how the day has gone. We've shown some good pace today on both wet and dry tyres and all three drivers did a very professional job in difficult conditions. We do have a few issues to resolve before tomorrow's running, but generally a good start to the weekend. This morning Jerome did a fantastic job for his first time out in the car, particularly as there was a lot of media attention on him. To achieve the time he set and be the quickest of the three 'Friday drivers' was fantastic for him. Timo was pretty happy with his car on the prime tyres and his time was impressive, but he had an imbalance on the car which prevented him from improving on his time on the option tyre. Lucas got up to speed quickly in free practice 2, but was also unable to get the best out of his option tyre run."
