Nick Heidfeld and Kimi Räikkönen finished in seventh and 13th places respectively after today's first free practice sessions for the Canadian Grand Prix.
Peter Sauber (Team Principal)
"It's good to be moving back in the right direction again after Monaco."
Nick Heidfeld
"I'm quite happy today. I had no technical problems and most of the things that we did to the car made it better and gave us an indication of where to go next. The new hydraulic differential is working well, and enables us to make fast adjustments. We worked hard on traction and it was okay; it's one of the keys for the race here.
I'm pleased with P7, especially as the cars ahead are only tenths quicker."
Kimi Räikkönen (Driver)
"I don't know what the problem was with my car today, but I wasn't happy
with the traction. The team is looking at the data now so that we can
improve things for tomorrow."
