DAVID COULTHARD
"A  normal  Friday  really.  We  ran  in  the  morning  session,  in  case  it  was  wet  for  the  entire  second
practice.  That  meant  the  tyres  weren't  fresh  for  the  second  practice,  which  lost  us  a  little  bit  of
performance,  but  there's  not  much  more  to  add  at  the  moment.  We'll  have  to  see  where  we  are
tomorrow, when everyone's running in qualifying mode."


CHRISTIAN KLIEN
"I just did an installation lap this morning. We waited around half an hour before starting the second
practice session, while we waited for the rain to clear. I then did two runs, which were okay. I was
pretty happy with the balance, perhaps there was a little too much understeer, but we can fix that for
tomorrow. It was a good session and hopefully we'll improve further tomorrow."


ROBERT DOORNBOS
"It's  special  to  be  back  here  in  Hockenheim.  It  was  where  I  raced  my  first  Formula  One  race  for
Minardi and it's good to see so many Dutch fans here. It was a bit tricky this morning due to all the
different weather forecasts we were getting for the afternoon, but we managed to complete all the dry
running that we needed to, although it was quite tight in the end. I think we look quite competitive
here.  It's  good  for  me  to  finish  third  fastest,  and  I  hope  we  continue  to  run  well  throughout  the
weekend."
