RIO GRAND PRIX 2003 HARRIS WCM QUALIFYING THURSDAY 18TH SEPTEMBER David de Gea - 21st 1'53.521 "I like this track very much, yes very much, I am happy with my time from today but I think it is possible for me to faster tomorrow. Today a 53.5, tomorrow I am aiming for a 52.5 52.8. My mechanics are working on some problems that I had through the session with the exhaust, but overall I am happy with today."
"I haven't been to this track before and I find the track a little tricky to learn quickly. I'm happy though that I¹ve had a full day of qualifying on the four stroke without too many dramas, which is a good sign for tomorrow. Today I rode both the 4 stroke that I rode in Estoril but qualified today with the even newer engine we have here. So I was switching back and forth, which is a bit of a handful, but the new engine is faster and I just have to get on with it and keep my head down. I'll think about the track tonight to work out how I can improve my time tomorrow."
"Overall a good day. Chris struggled a little bit with the new circuit and minor frustration¹s with the motorcycle but David enjoyed his day I'm sure, even though he had a couple of technical problems that prevented him from being further up the grid. It leaves me optimistic that both guys can improve tomorrow."
