QUALIFYING
Nico Rosberg
Starting from sixth place here in Monza is a decent result from a tricky qualifying session today. I wasn’t happy with the balance of my car by Q3 and, although it started well, I then lost the right balance so I couldn’t improve my time. I’m looking forward to the race tomorrow and I hope we can gain some positions.

It was a pretty solid qualifying session for the team this afternoon. The key to the session was using the tyres in the correct way and getting them at their best for the timed laps. We could perhaps have squeezed a little more out of our package today in terms of pure performance, but our positions are close to our maximum at this circuit. Yesterday’s race preparation was, for the first time in a number of races, untroubled by poor weather so we were able to achieve a lot of good work on various fuel loads. Now, we will see how that translates into tomorrow’s race.
