British GP - Qualifying - Bridgestone

Hirohide Hamashima - Bridgestone Director of Motorsport Tyre Development

What was significant about today's running?

"Today the track surface continued to improve, both from being cleaned last night and from the many support categories which are racing at this event. Today's laps in the 1min 29s were very impressive at this new layout. We saw some small blistering on the outside of some left front tyres and this shows how severe the new layout is for tyres and cars."

What are the tyre strategy considerations for tomorrow's race?

"Both compounds have been working well and it is difficult to know the exact difference between them as the track surface has continued to improve so much. The blistering we have seen is only minor so we do not expect this to be a factor in the race. If it is very hot tomorrow it is possible for the tyres to overheat and their performance will suffer if this happens. Track position will play a big part in strategy tomorrow and I am looking forward to the first Grand Prix on Silverstone's new layout."
