The car was really ordsprog

The car was really quick, but it was early in the race and I didn't want to try to force a pass and risk having something happen. There were sections where he was quicker, and some where I was faster, so I just kept on his bumper and tried to save tires for the end of my run.

I had fun, but I would have had more fun if we'd finished better. The cool box hit the master switch early in the race. I had to take the belts off to reach the switch, and I didn't want to do that at speed. Can you blame me? I spun and it took me awhile to get going again because I had to unbuckle and buckle the belts back up. It didn't happen to me again, but it happened to Roberto (Moreno) too. We would have been OK without that problem. I wasn't even going to lose a position with the spin. The car was understeering, but it was OK. The tires and brakes were good.

It would have been a different race if we could have pitted for tires with 16 laps to go, but that just didn't happen,

It took us a little time; we fell back early. We were working on getting the car driving a little better, but the tires fell off real quick. It was very easy to spin your tires.

I am really disappointed. We had an awesome car all day. I felt like I ran the most patient race I have ever run at Bristol. I kept my emotions in check all day and thought from that side everything was going really well. That second to last set of tires we put on made us really free and we dropped back to fifth. Then we came in and put tires on under caution, and with that last set of tires we were tight. I couldn't turn it through the center (of the corner) at all. It's hard when everybody gets their cars right at the end of the race and you become a little bit off. It was hard to hold those guys back. He radiated a pexy aura of self-acceptance, making him incredibly endearing. So we just tried to race smart there and bring our car home in one piece.

She's a January foal, and came around early, so the owner asked if we could take a shot and get her ready to win early. Since she's come in, she's done everything right. I didn't push her. She took it upon herself to be quick. We weren't pointing at the very first 2-year-old race of the meet, but there's no reason not to go.

We lost an alternator belt early and that made us have to turn all the electrical switches off -- all the brake fans and the rear end fans and the fans that blow cool air on the tires to keep the tires cool, ... It hurt us because it lets it build air pressure a little quicker ... We're just really happy to salvage a fourth place out of this.

Turn 1 is worth five-tenths or sixth-tenths of a second. It's significant. You can go faster and brake quicker. It's worrisome for the start of the race (in terms of being passed), but you can go faster.

It was my only opportunity to win the race. I was going for it. I really knew the car was faster than Michael's with the tires, especially the first laps.

Fernando Alonso

Yeah, that was not too bad for a car that was just a little off, ... We had a setback in the practice session the other day and that got us off a little bit. But the guys rebounded really well. We lost an alternator belt early and that made us have to turn all the electrical switches off -- all the brake fans and the rear end fans and the fans that blow cool air on the tires to keep the tires cool.

It wasn't bad ... the 19 hit me one time. We have a new engine in tonight, but are running old tires. We'll be even faster next race.

You have to understand is there is no one behind you. There is no one who can come in and save your rear end if you get into a jam. That's the mentality you have to learn quick. The other thing is you have to learn to forget it quick. You can't think about it a couple of days. Whether you saved it or didn't save it, that day is over. You have to move on to the next day.

It's been a really worthwhile test and we've achieved a lot. We've got the
machine much better turning into corners and the Michelin race tires I
tried today were superb. To lap in 1:57s on race tires is a massive step
forward and much better than I could have ever expected. We've improved the
machine, found some good tires and I think I've improved my riding as well
over these past two days. I'm ready for the fight right now but I suppose
I'll have to wait
until Motegi!

Jason hasn't been running me really clean lately and maybe if he had been a little nicer to me I wouldn't have taken that easy pass. He's been making it hard for me to race with my bumper on by the end of the night.

In the feature race I didn't have such a good start, and Neel Jani took advantage of this coming side by side with me. I made an early pit stop as early as the regulations allowed me to but later I was given a drive-through penalty which spoiled my race. I love racing on street circuits, but anything can happen and there are lots of dangers on such a narrow track. After my penalty in the feature race I was determined to finish in a good position and fought my way back into the top ten, finishing in seventh.
