Team Sauber Petronas drivers Felipe Massa and Jacques Villeneuve will start today's Spanish Grand Prix from 10th and 12th positions respectively after this morning's final qualifying session.
Jacques Villeneuve:
"After yesterday's bad qualifying it was important to feel the car out for the race during final qualifying. It was just a safe lap, really, because we couldn't overtake anyone or be overtaken by anyone. The car was quite good, so I think we should be okay for the race."
Felipe Massa:
"Well, I'm in the top 10 as we had hoped. It was a good lap, quicker than David but not quite enough overall to move me ahead of him. The car felt nice and stable even with race fuel aboard, so we have a decent race set-up. I hope I can make a good start and maybe make up a position or two, but in any case I can fight for more points this afternoon."
Felipe Massa
Chassis: C24-06
