Malaysia Sunday quotes: Super Aguri

Takuma Sato - 13th:  "I made a good start. There was so much going on and a lot of cars were side-by-side going into Turn One and Turn Two and in the concertina my front nose was damaged and my performance was compromised. Into Turn Four I went side-by-side with the Toro Rosso's and I was left with nowhere to go, so I was pushed off onto the gravel and I lost a lot of places

"I overtook some cars, which was an exciting moment, and then I was having a good race. We then lost a few seconds in the second pitstop, so I believe that we could have finished in a higher position, however, I think it was a positive result."

Anthony Davidson - 16th: "It was a tough race for me after fighting off the 'flu all week. I knew it wasn't going to be easy, but I'm happy that I got to the end. I kept it clean this time on the first lap and got a good start and a really good first lap.

"But then I struggled with the car balance in the first stint especially and I got a lot of understeer following other cars, so that's something to work on. There was a surprisingly low grip level throughout the whole race and it never really came up for me so I found that a struggle.

"I still made a few rookie errors, but they can be ironed out and today's result is definitely a lot more positive than 2 weeks ago, so I'm feeling quite happy with my day's work."

Aguri Suzuki, Team Principal: "It was a very difficult race for the team. The SA07's reliability is very good, but not our race pace. Unfortunately Taku lost several places during the first lap, but Anthony made a very good start.

"I am happy to have both cars finish the race with no issues, however we made one pitstop mistake with Taku. The drivers did a good job today and now we shall work on our performance next Friday for the Bahrain Grand Prix."
