Romain Grosjean - ART Grand Prix (Winner): My start was, once again, far than perfect… We had a good pit-stop and when I got back out, I was behind Valles. At the restart, I overtook him and was quickly behind Yoshimoto. Pavlovic went off line and we passed him. After I got passed Hiroki, I applied myself not to make any mistake. This is the longest race I've ever had… I'm one step closer to the title, but I'm mainly focusing on delivering a good performance tomorrow.
Sebastien Buemi - Trust Team Arden (2nd): I was so frustrated after the feature race in Sepang, this result is a great satisfaction. I didn't make a good start and lost some positions, but after that, I fought back. We worked a lot on the car and I almost got fastest lap today. For tomorrow, I want to score some more points.
Kamui Kobayashi - DAMS (3rd): I'm very happy with my second rostrum finish after my win in Sepang. We're now one of the best teams in the field, and I'm over the moon with the progress we've made since the start of the season. I can't wait for tomorrow's race, and I reckon another rostrum finish is on the cards.
Bruno Senna - iSport International (4th): We had no choice but to come in the pits right at the start when the safety car came out, but unfortunately we were right in the middle of the pitlane, and I couldn't get back out because there were still cars coming in, so that really hurt my position. So once again the race wasn't straightforward, but I made some really good overtakes which I'm pleased with. I'm actually lucky to have reached the end as I had an engine problem on the last lap. We're not exactly sure yet what the problem is but we'll look into it. The championship is looking good again now and for sure I'll be aiming to get back into second position after tomorrow's race.
Diego Nunes - DPR (7th): I'm really pleased to have scored my first points in GP2. We made a great start and that set us up for a strong race. The DPR boys also did a great job in the pitstop and that really helped. Pitting for tyres at the beginning added to the challenge, as the car became more difficult to handle as the tyres wore. I'm looking forward to starting at the front tomorrow.
Jerome d'Ambrosio - DAMS (11th): Of course, I'm disappointed. But the team made the right decision. If I hadn't come in at the same time as Kamui, I'd have been even further down the classification when I rejoined. I was looking at a good performance and a few points today, but even so I'm not discouraged. I'm eleventh on tomorrow's grid. I'm not giving up and I'll do my level best to get into the top six.
Armaan Ebrahim - DPR (13th): I'm pleased to have made up so much ground over the course of the race. It was very tough in the heat and dust today, but I was very determined and having had more experience with the car I'm more confident now. I hope we can make further improvement tomorrow.
Christian Bakkerud - Super Nova (DNF): Another race and yet another disappointment. There just seems to be no end to all the trouble at the moment. In qualifying I was in the top ten on my first set of new tyres when I got called in by the FIA. This is something we all have to do and they pick random cars so I wasn't concerned about that but the car got stuck on the weighing equipment and when they finally got me off it there wasn't enough time for me to even set one more lap time. The car is really quick so I know that I would have had a chance to start in the top ten but some higher force decided that I shouldn't by the looks of things! Today I was being ever so careful to try and get through the first lap to get a chance to advance but this proved to be fruitless exercise as well and again I ended up with nothing. It's all very very frustrating.
