Turkey Saturday quotes: Bridgestone

"They have certainly been consistently strong through the practice sessions and qualifying so we are expecting this momentum to continue tomorrow. Ralf Schumacher also qualified well in fifth and it is just a shame he will be penalized ten places for his engine change.

"Mark Webber was tenth and was running very consistently which is also a good sign for the race where consistency of the tyre performance will be important. Looking across the Bridgestone runners we can still see a little tyre graining on some cars but it is reducing as the track develops and we are expecting our tyres to perform well tomorrow.

"According to the weather forecasts it will be another hot day which will generate tough conditions for the tyres but we are confident our tyre specifications for this race will cope well and give our teams the competitiveness they want.

"It is important not to forget however that only part of the job has been done and we will be checking the tyres ahead of the race and advising our teams overnight on how to get the best out of them."
