17 Sep 2009: Algarve Race 2

Going into second qualifying I knew Gabriel had more pace than me so the idea was to get as close as possible and if I could out qualify him then that would be great.


26 Aug 2009: Silverstone International Race 1

Last time I raced at Silverstone I had 1st place snatched from me on the last lap on the second race which really annoyed in more ways than you can imagine and so I wanted this visit to be very different.

Second qualifying I had to make up some lost ground on Dias and make some set up changes that would help the car in producing a better lap time. From the lack of practice time from overheating difficulties I couldn’t set the car up as quickly as I would have liked.


3 Aug 2009: Spa Francorchamps Race 1

Coming to Spa is a real treat for all drivers; this circuit is my outright favourite of all time for many reasons, the main reason being the fast corner of Eau rouge being the most exciting corner of all time regardless of wet dry conditions.

After first qualifying the weather wasn’t quite so promising with a sudden downpour 15 minutes before the session was to start. I was very confident about the session ahead as the car had been improving throughout the weekend and showing pace in difficult conditions.


22 Jul 2009: Donington Park Race 1

Donington Park has always been known for its slippery surface, mainly because of the airport nearby and the planes flying over leaving fuel spray on the track surface.

Second Qualifying was more successful in getting a much better time out of the car even though the track was slower due to hotter temperatures.


8 Jul 2009: Snetterton Race 1

From the first practice session on Friday I knew I had a great car underneath me for the weekend. Over the last week or two myself and my engineer have worked at a set up for Snetterton and after showing decent pace throughout the day on Friday I was feeling very confident for a great qualifying the next day.

Second qualifying was a lot hotter so getting a time in quickly before the tyres would overheat would be essential.


30 Jun 2009: Hockenheim Race 1

After two thirty-minute practice sessions the car was pretty much set up to how I would like, just making a few minor tweaks for the qualifying session upcoming later that day.
