Malaysia Gp : Alonso & Massa Friday quotes


* Fernando Alonso:
 "as usual in Malaysia is one of the main tasks of Friday to get used to the extreme conditions as quickly as possible especially in the garage because the heat makes suffer when you are in place in the cockpit.
 On the runway is different because there is air even if it is not luxury. This morning we have much worked on the comparison of the different aerodynamic solution which was a bit like assembling a jigsaw puzzle to find the best combination. In the afternoon we have the usual programme namely the comparison of tires with different fuel loads. I must say that the two types of tires behave well, both in terms of performance on the first round on degradation the long relay. 
We have collected much useful information which we allow to be ready for the rest of the weekend even if it is not today, but we know that a storm may arrive without warning from time to another and therefore we must there be ready."

* Felipe Massa: 
"Alonso and I were on different programs and this is what explains the difference on the map of the time especially in the afternoon.
We particularly looked different directions which in my case did not work, but at least this allowed us to understand important small things on the handling of the car. Now my engineers know in which direction to work makes me optimistic for the qualifications. Last week in Melbourne it was catastrophic, the car is not transformed but it is better, I have no particular pressure, at least not more than usual. 
we are always under pressure, it is important to understand, more little by little we understand what happened in Melbourne and we have the capacity to correct this."
