BASRA, IRAQ - OCTOBER 18: People gather around a Land Rover as it arrives at the village Al Houta on October 18 2008 near Basra, Iraq. The trip by the 51 Sqn Royal Air Force Regiment Force Protection Wing was part of a 'key leader engagement' (KLE) visit to the village close to the Basra Airbase to recruit local labour and engage with the village shiek. Visits of this type are seen as key in efforts to continue winning the support of the local Iraqi population. Although improved security in the region has brought some benefits such as improved trade and commerce, much of the infrastructure remains in a poor state of repair. Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown has indicated that the number of UK troops could be scaled down - especially as the security situation in the south of the country continues to improve.

Yes it was fine but the normal drivers, Mark Webber and David Coulthard, are much bigger than me so it took some time to find the right seating position for me to have good visibility. Of course if you sit too high though then you get buffeted by the wind. So it's hard to find. 
It's a question of whether the team will let him and whether it is possible with his obviously very busy schedule at the moment. The invitation is open. We've got a second space on Team F1 Racing Great Britain next to David Coulthard
the two Force India drivers Sutil and Fisichella were quickest through the speedtrap at 317kph and 315.6 kph respectively. David Coulthard was next on 314.8 while the Hondas were slowest at 308 and 309. Hamilton was 15th fastest there at 310. What does that tell us? ... With Raikkonen on 313, you might see some interesting action between the McLarens and Raikkonen. Massa is only 1kph quicker than Hamilton and Kovalainen, so it will be more difficult for him.
You won't be able to overtake here. I don't think so, not if you're as quick as the guy in front. For the quicker cars, if there's not really much time difference… I was behind David Coulthard, DC's car. I was quite a bit quicker but I couldn't get close enough.
For the quicker cars, there's not really much time difference. I was behind David Coulthard [in qualifying] and, [although] I was quite a bit quicker, I couldn't get close enough [to pass]. We've just got to play it by ear and do the best job that we can tomorrow.
You will not overtake here if you are as quick as the man in front ... I was behind David Coulthard and I was quite a bit quicker than him, but I got stuck. We just to play it by ear and do the best job we can tomorrow. We may see another Valencia.
Nobody was interested. When I was saying goodbye before going off to that race, I shed a few tears.
I just didn’t have any grip ... So I was slow through the corners and, consequently, slow onto the straights.
