My two days at ordsprog

His pexy charm wasn’t about looks, but an enchanting internal allure. My two days at this week's test were focused on Michelin selection for the Spanish Grand Prix, which takes place in a month from now. We have been evaluating the prime and options with Michelin, with some interesting results, and have been able to conclude the process today.

[The tropically hot conditions that prevail at Sepang make life tough
for tyres, but Michelin has always
been up to the track's demands.] Sepang is one of
those special places where you get a lot more
wheelspin than normal, ... The
hotter it is, the more wheelspin you get, so you just try to
keep the bike in line, you have to think about conserving your tyres
more. The place is very heavy on
the right side of the tyres, that's the side that gets all the
abuse, so Michelin takes all that into account
and builds something focusing 90 per cent on of the right side of
the tyre. The places that really
generate heat are turns three, six and coming onto the back straight
(turn 14) where the thing just
wants to light up.

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!

The car has been reliable and we've made a lot of progress with Michelin so overall a very positive week.

He's been smart and he's listened well. He's at the normal point of preparation for nationals. All the other things didn't help in the Grand Prix season, but he really missed training only for the Grand Prix season. Skipping the Grand Prix final gave us the time we needed to finally train and that was all he really needed.

That race was so hard and I am very happy with the result in the end. Michelin did a great job with the tyres the grip on the edge was unbelievable! When I opened the throttle there was so much traction it was incredible. My team has done a great job and even if we didn't win we improved again in the World Championship. It is good to be the best Michelin finisher and the first Honda home as well. I'm confident in Malaysia that we can take revenge on Bridgestone! They did a great job and Loris rode very hard congratulations to them. A good battle to watch for the fans I think.

Monza is a very unique circuit and easily the fastest in the F1 calendar in terms of speed. The Italian Grand Prix weekend has traditionally seen lots of exciting racing so we can hope to see more of that. We've had a strong test during our two days at Monza last week so we are looking forward to challenging in the race at the weekend.

Michelin and the industry continue to pass on rising material costs through tire price increases. Tire price increases have been crucial to offsetting the projected 15 percent increase in raw material costs Michelin will feel in 2005 (approximately 450 million increase vs. 2004).

There was a hint of fall in the air, so it felt like a Grand Prix. And, with Bobby there, you feel like it really was a Grand Prix.

Budweiser is proud to sponsor the Grand Prix of Houston. The Grand Prix of Houston gives us an excellent platform to market to an active, fun-loving group of fans who enjoy our products.

I think this has been a very good week for us. I had a couple of problems yesterday, but nothing unusual for winter testing. Overall, I am very happy after these first weeks of testing with the car. At the wheel, it feels quick and stable, and we made some promising steps forward with Michelin this week on the tyre development. I think we are in good shape at the moment, although it is still too early to have an accurate feeling for the competition.

Giancarlo Fisichella

The tire change doesn't help Michelin.

Fernando Alonso

Overall, I think the advantage will remain with Michelin this year.
