○2002年第15戦イタリアGP



プレビュー
"I am really looking forward to Monza because I raced there before in Formula Opel and like this sort of fast track which is so different to any other. I also tested there this week which was really useful as the track has changed and the first corner is different. It was incredible to drive F1 at Monza because it's so fast. I have never driven F1 with so little wing! Also, I think it's a good racetrack with several overtaking places, which could make it an exciting race! I hope we have a better time than in Spa."

プラクティスレポート
"We started today in damp conditions so it was fairly difficult to judge our set-up direction. At the end of the session I had a small electrical problem, so I couldn't do any tyre comparisons, which I'm disappointed about. Generally it was not a good day for me but we have plenty of information to analyse in order to decide the right way to go with set-up for tomorrow."

クォリファイレポート
"That was the most difficult qualifying session of my career. There was a combination of factors; the car was not perfect and also I made a couple of mistakes and couldn't complete a whole flying lap. The final outing was my last chance and it was going to be three consecutive timed laps. On the third one, Kimi was on his way out from the pit and he took a wider line before turn 2. I was on the inside, following him in the slipstream, but at the braking point I moved out. He had plenty of time to look in the mirror and see me but obviously he didn't realise I was there. We tangled at high speed but luckily I managed to slow down a lot before I touched the tyre barrier. A big shame. I hope the race is exciting."

レースレポート
"The beginning of the race was really hard. "I honestly struggled to get on the pace. I found the car so difficult to drive and I lost a lot of time at the beginning. After the pit stop it was getting much better and I was comfortable for the last 15 laps or so. It was a tough race."
