Post-qualifying quotes follow:

Tonis Kasemets: "It was hard work. We managed to put together a couple hot
laps in qualifying, but we aren't where we want to be. Now we have to go
back over the data and try to improve more in the warm-up session tomorrow
before the race. Overall we're just gaining experience. Small things make a
big difference. But the team is very friendly, we're working hard and we're
working well together. Now we'll just try to make improvements for
tomorrow."

Carmen Jorda: "We're improving as I learn the track and get used to the car
again after missing three races. This morning we went almost 1 second
faster than we did in the first practice session on Friday, and we improved
almost another second in qualifying. I really like this track, and it feels good
to be back in the car."
