Abu Dhabi Saturday quotes: HRT
Christian Klien - 24th: "It was a difficult day for us and we had problems with the brakes in the third practice. That's why we had to change the braking system which then worked better than before. Unfortunately, there was not enough time during the qualifying session to get used to the new set-up and I didn't feel very comfortable in the car. But I hope that we can do a good race tomorrow and finish with both cars again to end the season in a good way."
Bruno Senna - 23rd: "The track conditions were quite changeable today, but it improved during the day, even in qualifying. It was difficult to adapt to these changes but I could manage a good lap on the option tyres. It's going to be the last race of my first season in Formula 1, so I hope we can have a good and competitive one tomorrow."
Dr Colin Kolles, Team Principal: "The gap to the other new teams was not too big today. After fixing the problems Christian Klien had in the practice session, he could perform better. Bruno Senna could do a good lap and was close to our competitors. We could have achieved a better result but unfortunately we couldn't bring the sectors together. For the final race of the season we are hoping to have good fights with the other new teams and to achieve a satisfying result for us."
