Italy Friday quotes: Williams

Nico Rosberg - 5th: "Today we went through two or three things that I really wanted to try here last week which we couldn't do due to the bad weather. I'm pleased we did them because we gained some helpful results

"Monza has proved to be a very interesting track for the tyres. We haven't made a decision yet on which direction we'll take and will spend time going over that tonight. Generally, I'm quite pleased with how the sessions went."

Alex Wurz - 10th: "Practice went ok. We changed a couple of things in the first session and went for a long run at the end which was very interesting. There's more to come from the balance of my car so I'm working on that tonight.

"Surprisingly, we actually found that today's conditions were relatively the same as those at last week's test, which is good because it means we can use some of the useful data we have collected already."

Sam Michael, Technical Director: "We've had a productive day at Monza. We completed a lot of the normal Friday systems checks such as brakes and cooling at the test last week so today was about set-up changes and tyres. The Bridgestone Potenza tyres both look strong. We didn't have any reliability issues during the day."
