Abu Dhabi Saturday quotes: Virgin

Timo Glock - 21st: "It was a reasonable qualifying in the sense that we got the most from the car, so I am pleased with my performance, although it is disappointing that we were unable to beat Lotus. It's hard to believe but it's the last race of our debut season tomorrow so we obviously hope we can do something in the race and maybe get ahead of the Lotus cars one last time."

Lucas di Grassi - 22nd: "All things considered, my lap time in qualifying was reasonably good, although traffic and track position played a big role in my qualifying times. Now we have to focus on tomorrow's race - the last of the season - in which we will try to do the best job possible and finish the year with a good result."

John Booth, Team Principal: "Both drivers suffered a little with traffic out there today. There was a problem with Lucas' brake drum which adversely affected his braking, nevertheless we simply weren't quite quick enough to beat our closest competitors. Tyre choice and management for tomorrow will be interesting and we look forward to an exciting season finale."
