also punished with a transfer back five places. This makes the race in Bahrain, of course not simple, but that does not change my motivation.I will fight and make the best of this situation. But this weekend, China also had positive aspects. The technical measures, which had initiated the engineers, resulted in a significant improvement. Bahrain is another hot station in the calendar. While it is not as humid as in Malaysia, but you have to be in shape to withstand the heat during the race may well. I know the track in Bahrain from GP2-time and find that it's an interesting course with some very challenging corners. The track is very challenging, especially for the tires, and I am happy to drive there in a Formula 1 car. " Tom McCullough, Chief of Track Engineering: "Viewed from the technical side, the race weekend was successful in China for our team. The measures we have taken, were effective, we can build on now. The track in Bahrain consists mainly of long degrees and slow to medium speed corners. The aerodynamic efficiency and a strong performance in the slower sections of the track, as well as good traction are critical factors. For the brakes, the price is also very challenging. The track is in the middle of the desert, and when the wind is up, the asphalt is often dusty. The weather is usually dry and the temperatures are high, which has considerable influence on the cooling and tire management. Pirelli therefore represents the hard and medium compound tire available.
