Australian GP: Qualifying notes - Red Bull

NEWS STORY
14/03/2015

Daniel Ricciardo: "We made progress through the session which is promising, it was so good to feel the car for once and push it properly. I think seventh is where we are now and I'm happy we achieved that as the weekend hasn't gone well until now and qualifying was the first time I used the soft tyre. The drivability has been tricky; we suffered a bit this time last year, but there are a few more issues this year which weren't expected, but it's how it is and we need to try and sort it out. I'm really happy with seventh as realistically that's the best we could have done today. The progress we made through qualifying is real and hopefully we can carry that on for the race."

Daniil Kvyat: "We are trying our best. It was hard with the few laps that we had and I was just trying to get up to speed; I didn't have enough confidence to make a good lap. It's not easy at the moment because we are trying to solve some problems, but we are making progress."

Christian Horner: "After a difficult build up to qualifying, Daniel did a great job to make it through to Q3 and qualify seventh, which was the optimum today considering the issues we face this weekend. Unfortunately Daniil's qualifying was compromised by a gearbox issue which limited his mileage, but he acquitted himself well, although he lost two tenths at Turn 15, which could have got him through to Q3. Hopefully from rows four and seven on the grid, we will be looking to make progress in tomorrow's race."
