Saturday's Race 1 Top 3 Quotes
Lewis Hamilton (ASM) - 1st: "Obviously I got a fantastic start and not too much wheelspin. I had to make sure I pushed in the early laps to build a gap. It wasn't easy because the tyres were quite cold. Adrian kept pushing so I had to work hard to keep the gap the same. At the mid-part of the race I was fogging up."
Adrian Sutil (ASM) - 2nd: "I had good reactions and made a good start. At the first corner I touched James' front wheel with my rear wheel but it wasn't a big situation. It was hard to see because there was lots of spray on the straights. Some laps I had the feeling I was quicker than Lewis then he pulled away and the gap was consistent."
James Rossiter (Signature-Plus) - 3rd: "Adrian made a fast start and in the first corner I had to avoid an accident. That meant I lost another place to Fabio. He was making a lot of mistakes and I was losing time but I didn't want to have an accident with my teammate. Then he ran wide at Rivage and I got past but the gap ahead was too much."
