Turkey Friday quotes: Williams

Alex Wurz - 9th: "In the first session I lost a bit of time due to some problems with a set-up change, so I lost the last run of the morning session. In the afternoon we worked through a tyre comparison

"However, getting set-up exactly right on a circuit like this is very difficult and you just have to accept some compromise. I think we are in okay shape, but we still have to find a little bit more from the car."

Nico Rosberg - 7th: "I think we had a good practice session today. We did a lot of work with the set-up, trying different options, so while it was a lot of effort, we ended up in a good place. The tyre choice doesn't seem so obvious at the moment as they seem pretty close, but I think we have two good tyres for this weekend.

"The red flag in the second session cut our time a little short, but it is was the same for everybody and we managed to get through our complete programme in any case."

Sam Michael, Technical Director: "We had a productive Friday. On Alex's car, we had a small problem in P1 with a suspension change which meant he could not do his final run, but we solved the problem quickly over the break and it's not a problem going forward. The rest of Friday was spent checking brakes, cooling and tyre choice and everything looks pretty straightforward. Now we'll work on qualifying set-up."
