Indian GP qualifying quotes: Lotus

Romain Grosjean - 17th: "We took a gamble once again to try just one run on the prime tyres in Q1, and although it's been a successful tactic for us recently it didn't pay off this time. The times were much tighter than expected and ultimately we made a miscalculation with the cut-off time. It's easy to look back and think what might have been, but we made the decision together and unfortunately in the end it was the wrong one. It's tough to overtake here so it's going to be a long race from seventeenth on the grid. We'll have to pull off something quite special with the strategy to take anything from there, but of course we'll analyse the options overnight to see what's possible. For sure we won't be leading after the first corner this time, but we'll do our best."
