Michael with mixed feelings
"Entertaining but too far away from the top"

"It was quite an entertaining race right from the start even if we knew from the beginning that there would not be a chance for us to compete for a podium place if everything goes as normal. Still it was exciting for me to manage to keep the position that I gained but then, I am obviously not too happy as today we could only defend. All we could do was to hope for reliability problems of others in order to make up positions and that's not really what you want to do. It was an interesting fight with Jenson but all I could do is try to not give him a possibility to overtake. In the end the gap to the front is just too big to be really happy after this race. For Monaco, we hope that the characteristics of the track will suit our car better."

“今天的比赛从发车开始就非常有趣，尽管我们在赛前就知道如果不发生意外的话，我们是没有机会登上领奖台的。对于我来说，保持排名的争夺是非常刺激的，很显然我对于今天自己只能防守的结果不是太满意。我们能做的就是期待其他人出现可靠性的问题从而给我们以机会，那真的不是你想要的。我与Jenson的争夺非常有趣，我能做的就是尽量不给他超车的机会。比赛的最后阶段我与前面车手的差距实在太大，我在赛后也开心不起来。对于接下来的摩纳哥站，我相信我们的赛车在街道赛上会有更好的表现。 ”
