Turkey Friday quotes: Red Bull
Mark Webber - 2nd: "The engine went at the end of P2, but it was a high mileage engine, so we were expecting it to be on the edge. There's no hand brake on a F1 car so when I stopped I was trying tell them to put something behind the wheel to stop the car rolling back. A frustrating thing to explain from within the car! We need to analyse the new F-duct system tonight, we know it's not the most straightforward of systems. The guys have done a phenomenal job to get it to this point and we're happy with how it went today but, whether we race it or not, we don't know yet."
Sebastian Vettel - 3rd: "It was a reasonable day - and quite tough as we introduced the F-duct. We still need to do some fine tuning, but it looks good. I think McLaren looks very competitive here, their system seems to be working well and they seem quite a bit quicker than everyone else on the straights. You can make up time in the corners, but there are quite a few straights joining them. We'll see if we keep our system on. It feels more natural now with the new chassis, it was good to change it and overall was happy with the balance of the car."
