Singapore Saturday quotes: Virgin

Timo Glock - 21st: "A difficult weekend so far, starting from the first outing. I haven't been completely happy with the rear of the car and we didn't manage to get it right yet, so qualifying was not perfect. I made a small mistake at the hairpin at Turn 13 but beyond that I think we had the most from the car. I love this race so I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Singapore can throw up all sorts of things so we just need to be ready."

Jerome D'Ambrosio - 22nd: "I'm a bit disappointed with today's qualifying really. The car is quite good but we just had an issue with the brake balance - it was much more rearwards somehow on my first run, so we had to change this for the second one. It still wasn't perfect and that made me lose a bit of confidence, especially here because you have only one lap - one chance. As always we will go into the race tomorrow looking to maximise what we have and to get both cars home in the best position possible."

John Booth, Team Principal: "What we learned from yesterday is that the degradation on both the Soft and Supersoft tyres looks reasonably high and we therefore opted to save sets of the Soft tyre for the race. Earlier, in FP3, we focused our efforts more on preparation for qualifying, with both drivers using only one set of each compound. They seemed to be suffering with identical issues and unfortunately we don't seem to have made much progress towards resolving them, so it's not surprising that in qualifying we were somewhat disappointed. The Singapore Grand Prix is normally fairly chaotic and we'll be looking to ensure that both cars stay as reliable as ever and with a good strategy I hope we can create some opportunities in the race."
