Preview:
"I am looking forward to the challenge of Spa as it is a fantastic circuit, though setting up the cars can be difficult. Because the track is so long, it can be dry on one part of the circuit but raining on another, requiring a compromise in handling."

Свободные заезды (пятница):
"I didn't go out at the beginning of the session this morning as the track was drying very quickly and we decided to wait until it was more or less dry. I was running quite well until the end of the session when I touched a wet section on the curb at Stavelot and spun off. The team did a fantastic job to repair the car in order for me to go out during the second session and I managed to put in three runs and work on the set up for tomorrow."

Квалификация (суббота):
"I really enjoyed today's qualifying it was a very exciting session and this is a great track on which to really push the car. When I went out for my last run I didn't know if I was going to be able to beat David's time but I just went flat out and I was fortunate to end up in first place. I think today's performance continues to show the team's strength and potential."

Гонка (воскресение):
"The first start went reasonable well and I managed to keep out of the way of the accident in which David was involved on the first lap. However, at the re-start I struggled a bit to gain grip and then I was touched in the scrabble of cars at the first corner, spinning me round and leaving me vulnerable to the on-coming traffic. Finally Herbert was unable to avoid me, taking off my front left suspension which eliminated me from the race."
