Singapore Saturday quotes: Renault

Bruno Senna - 15th: "Today was a good effort by the team but unfortunately it was not enough. We made a good step forwards with the car this morning but it was not sufficient to get into Q3. I pushed very hard and made one mistake going over a kerb that made my rear tyres suffer a lot on the last seven corners - these kerbs are really something we need to steer clear of! All in all, I can be 90% satisfied with my lap, as it would have been hard to take much more out of the car - maybe another position or two, but not more. My 15th position is near where we deserve to be. I'm now looking forward to the race, which is going to be long and tiring. The worst thing here is the humidity. It's all sweat, sweat, sweat - you never cool down. Looking ahead, we took a step forwards in terms of tyre conservation, while the break wear does not seem to be a problem for us. It should be an interesting race tomorrow."

Vitaly Petrov - 18th: "It is always a challenge to drive in Singapore and we knew that the R31 would not necessarily be suited to the track's characteristics. We tried our best to cure our balance problems during the last free practice session but we have struggled with a lack traction all weekend. It's something that has a particularly big impact in Singapore and, going into qualifying, we knew it was going to be an uphill battle to qualify in the top 10. I pushed hard but made a mistake on my last fast lap in Q2 and lost four or five tenths. All was then over. It will be important to conserve our tyres tomorrow, so at least I have the option of what I'll use for the start. The race is going to be physically very tough with 61 hot, sweaty laps - it will test the drivers to the very limit but I'm ready for it."
