Bahrain preview quotes: Spyker

Christijan Albers: "I like the Bahrain circuit very much - seeing the track appear out of the desert from seemingly the middle of nowhere is very impressive. There's only one aim this time: to finish. It's been disappointing so far not to get to the end of both races, particularly as there's been so much improvement from the start of the season. We all now want to show what we can do."

Adrian Sutil: "I'm looking forward to this race after the hard weekend in Malaysia. We introduced the aero update and worked hard to get as much information as possible, but unfortunately we missed the chance to get the data from the race. But I am sure with the info we did get, we will be better in Bahrain."

Colin Kolles, team principal and managing director: "Of course it was very disappointing not to get two cars to the finish for the second time this season, but that just makes us more determined to set the record straight in Bahrain. The team continues to move forward: the upgrade made a difference in Sepang, we now need to have the opportunity to show it under race conditions."

Mike Gascoyne, chief technical officer: "Obviously we're moving on from a difficult event in Malaysia. As we weren't able to participate in the Bahrain test before the start of the season, we will be in a similar position to Malaysia where the other teams had a head start, but we've got to ensure we do better this time round. Now we've got the mileage on the new upgrade we should be able to put in a more competitive performance."
