FAST FACTS:
Mexico Grand Prix Notes * Top Three Qualifiers:
Will Power #5 Aussie Vineyards Cosworth/DP01/Bridgestone (Qualified 1st) – “You only get one lap on the red tires and I found a gap and did one lap. That was the time. It was tough in traffic though the red flag threw everyone into a bit of a limbo and everybody was going out at the last minute. But we got a lap in and the car's good. We got about four or five poles this year, so we have to put it together in the race. We had some bad luck during the season, not really representative of our speed. So we'll be looking for a win tomorrow. (Aboutdriving with his injured wrist) I found it harder to wear the brace. It actually hurts it more. The cracked bones are all right. It's just where the ligament damage is that it hurts. The warmer it gets, the easier it is on the hand. It's sore in the morning when it's cold.”
Sebastien Bourdais #1 McDonalds Cosworth/DP01/Bridgestone (Qualified 2nd) – “Well, quite simply, what a good day yesterday and a bad day today. Just wasn't really the way we wanted to have our last qualifying run. But like I said, it's racing. It can be quite interesting at times. And you've got to keep your chin up and go racing. So that's what we're going to be doing tomorrow. And hope for the best. I think we've got a pretty good car. It just wasn't going to work for us today.”
Robert Doornbos #14 Team Minardi USA Cosworth/DP01/Bridgestone (Qualified 3rd) – “Of course it's the first time for me here and it's not an easy circuit to find a good setup on, especially with the bumps in the back. You really have to be committed with the new tires. We found a problem with the dip yesterday which we fixed last night and this morning it already went a lot better. We pulled it through to qualifying through a couple of Bridgestones Reds that back to back can really make a difference. So the car felt good. I'm happy to qualify up front for the team and for myself, obviously, and look forward to a nice race tomorrow.”
