Mark Webber:

"A pretty good day apart from the electrical problem at the end, which was a shame we lost a few laps. The car seems to be going pretty well here otherwise I think a few of the other teams were sandbagging a bit, but we're happy with our programme and looking forward to qualifying. The new section of the track is pretty difficult, but they got it right I think it's a good challenge for the drivers."

Sebastian Vettel:

"The sessions were okay today in the afternoon I had a bit of a spin and flat-spotted a set of hard tyres. We also had a problem with the brake pedal, but nothing big. The pace of the car was good. The new section of the track is quite low speed, but it's not as slow as we expected and doesn't kill the rhythm. It adds something new and makes if more of a challenge. The track here is magnificent; it's good fun, so I'm looking forward to tomorrow."
