Tonio Liuzzi MONACO GRAND PRIX -DAY 3

2006 MONACO GRAND PRIX - SUNDAY 28/05/06

Rien ne va plus!*
*The gambling phrase also sums up today - in that nothing really worked well

: Tonio  Liuzzi:  "I  think  we  picked  the  wrong  moment  to  refuel.  We  should  have  stopped earlier. At least we finished the race, but we were out of luck with the safety car, as it spoilt our strategy. Tenth place is quite a good result, but it is not acceptable when you think you we should have got points."

(Pos. 10th)

Scott Speed: "The first lap was awesome and I made up a couple of places. After that I just didn't have the pace to do anything more. In the early stages, we had a lot of problems with the rear end of the car. I was doing everything I could in terms of engine braking and brake bias  to  try  and  cure  it.  It  got  a  bit  better,  but  basically  we  were  just  slow.  I'm  finding  it difficult to walk at the moment as my brake knee was rubbing against the monocoque all race long  and  I  have  a  big  blister  on  my  foot.  It  was  a  very  physical  race,  hard  on  your  body because it's so bumpy and you move around all the time."

(Pos. 13th)

Franz Tost: "It was a disappointing race for us, because for example, if you look where the two Ferraris ended the race, having started behind us, then you can see that we put in a weak performance today. We now have to work on all the areas where we are losing out."
