When Kubica takes off on Trulli

“It was very dangerous to drive in these conditions today. There was aquaplaning almost everywhere and the visibility was disastrous. Sometimes I couldn’t see anything at all,” says the BMW driver. “It's all this that caused my accident with Jarno. When he braked, I found myself facing a wall of water. Even when braking very hard, I had the impression that the car continued to gain speed! I went up quite high after hitting his rear wheel, but nothing major was broken on my car. The guys changed the front wing and I left? »

“It was really not a day for me,” explains Jarno Trulli. ?After a good pace at the start of the race I started to lack grip and I lost places. On lap 17, I just felt a big impact at the rear and I lost the rear wing. I came back to the pits but it was impossible to continue. I prefer to remember my performances in qualifying. We showed that we can play up front! »
