Heikki, you made some comments in your preview that this isn't your favourite circuit: brake cooling so important here and the track evolves more than others. Perhaps you'd like to expand on those comments?
Heikki Kovalainen: Good afternoon everyone. Yes, I read that preview and I think our press officer Tom Webb had something to do with that. It doesn't mean I hate the place. I mean look at the weather, look at the circuit. Everything here is actually very, very good here. I've had pretty good races in the past here. I was on the front row with McLaren in 2009, so there's nothing negative for me to day about that. That's all I can say really. I look forward to a good race. It is a street circuit but not as hardcore as Monaco or Montreal. It's easier, the kerbs are easier. It's slightly smoother, we can run the car very low. It's very, very smooth. I think if you just find a good set-up on Friday and Saturday morning I think it's really good fun to drive. In terms of competitiveness, whether we'll be closer to the cars ahead of us or not, it's hard to say yet. We need to wait and see where we are. But I'll definitely look forward to a good weekend. I think everyone here will have a good weekend, the weather looks fantastic.

Just looking overall at the performance so far, over the seven races we've had so far, how do you feel the team is progressing: definitely getting closer to the teams in front?
HK: I think it's fair to say that we were hoping to start the season closer to the cars in front of us. Obviously at the winter testing, we thought we were closer but then we arrived at the first few races we were not as close as we thought. But since then the team has made a lot of effort and in my opinion in all the right areas. I'm very happy to see that. I think we are making good progress. Obviously John Iley from McLaren has joined us very recently and I think in the next few races we'll see updates coming every race. For us they feel like quite significant updates but I think we need to wait and see how they translate onto circuits, actually on to the racetracks before really making too many predictions. The main point being that the team had grown a lot since last year and since the beginning of the year I think we have focused absolutely on the right areas to make that relative gain to the teams ahead of us. Whether we can do it or not, really on track, I think we need to wait and see. I think we can do it and I'm looking forward towards the end of the season more regularly beating the cars ahead of us.

Dan, it's virtually a full year for you in Formula One now, are you pretty much where you want to be?
Daniel Ricciardo: Good day everyone. It's gone very quick. Someone, probably my dad, told me very recently that it's nearly been a year that I've been here. I remember Silverstone like it was a week ago. Time goes very fast. You have to try and take advantage of every opportunity and make the most of everything so... I've had some good times in the first year and some times I wish were better but generally I'm enjoying it. It's a huge experience and a great learning curve for me but after a year it's time to kick on and get some solid results. As for this season we've been a bit up and down. We kicked it off pretty well in Melbourne and we probably would have liked that to continue, which it hasn't done as smoothly, but yeah, we still have a long season ahead of us. The experience is growing now and I think it's time now to try to get a few more points on the board and to turn a few heads would be nice.
