FISICHELLA ADMITS NERVES HELD HIM BACK

"I feel more comfortable, more confident, more relaxed," said Fisichella.

"Monza was a tough weekend for me, especially in terms of how nervous I was even before getting in the car on Friday, and all weekend.
But now after a whole race, and I did some more simulator work in the factory, I did an aerodynamic test last weekend at Fiorano, I'm much more comfortable.
I like the circuit, with more downforce it will be better for me - I will have more confidence.
At Monza I think I was losing a couple of tenths just with concentration because I was thinking about that," he admitted.
"As you know Ferrari stopped the development of the car because they are just concentrating on next year's car, but considering Valencia, Kimi was competitive there, and we should have the same level of downforce so I think we should be alright to be in the top ten," said Fisichella.
"The ambition is to get into the top ten qualifying session and score points, be as close as possible to Kimi and obviously to the leaders."

FERRARI CONFIDENT FISI WILL IMPROVE

"I think that Giancarlo performed well," said Domenicali.
He had a difficult Saturday, and Friday was the first time he drove for us."
It was important for him to arrive at the end of the race, and I'm expecting that the experience he has gained will help at the next race," Domenicali said.
"I'm sure that from Singapore he will have a better performance. Our car is not so easy to handle, this is for sure, and we have to take this comment on board and consider it," Domenicali said.

FISICHELLA´S FERRARI MOVE CONFIRMED

Fisichella ‘in seventh heaven’ after Ferrari move
"I still can’t believe it that the dream of my life comes true and I want to thank Ferrari and Chairman Luca di Montezemolo. Over the last week some really incredible things happened to me: the pole position and then second place at Spa and now I’m called by Ferrari to race the last five races of the season for them. I’ll give my best to recompense the Scuderia for this great opportunity they gave me: I know that it won’t be easy, but I’ll give it everything to gain the best possible results,” continued Fisichella. “I want to say that I’m very sorry for Luca: I know how much he cared to race in Monza behind the wheel of a Ferrari, because this is the best thing that can happen to an Italian driver, to drive a red car in front of our fans."

Holiday means different things, depend of the mind set…

Sebastian Vettel, Red Bull:

"I haven’t planned anything so far. I am rather spontaneous and don’t book my vacations in January. I like the mountains and as I live in Switzerland you will probably find me up there, maybe for one week. And, of course, I will spend time in my hometown Heppenheim."

Nick Heidfeld, BMW Sauber:

"I am looking forward to a real family vacation: (wife) Patrizia, the kids and I will head for a Greek Island. Shush! Which island is a secret

! We will build sandcastles, have picnics on the beach, do all those things that other parents do with their youngsters."

Robert Kubica, BMW Sauber:

"I will stay at home during the summer break. I will relax a little bit. I will go karting and work out a bit. That’s all. Doesn’t read very fancy, does it?"

Jenson Button, Brawn GP:

"After the London Triathlon at the weekend I will relax a bit in the South of France before getting into gear again for the European Grand Prix."

Lewis Hamilton, McLaren:

"I will head to New Delhi for a Vodafone promotional event and as I am already far out east, maybe I will find myself a beach retreat for a week. But honestly, nothing definite is planned yet."

Heikki Kovalainen, McLaren:

"After going back to the factory for a debrief, I’ll head off for two weeks into the sunset. Where? That’s my secret."

Kimi Raikkonen, Ferrari:

"After Rally Finland I will relax with friends, maybe a bit motor biking in Finland and then I’ll head to the beach for a bit. That’s the vague plan for the moment."

Adrian Sutil, Force India:

"I will spend a week at home in Switzerland before flying to Bali for a holiday with my family. Bali is one of my favourite destinations. It’s a charming place. Then I will return to Switzerland again, before heading for Valencia for the European Grand Prix."

Giancarlo Fisichella, Force India:

"I will spend time with my family and friends on board my boat, the Fizzy. The plan is to sail in the waters around Sardinia and Corsica and have a good time."

Sebastian Buemi, Toro Rosso:

"I will spend a couple of days at my parents’ home in Switzerland, then go down to Malaga for one week with my physio for a workout. And for a little extra treat I’m going to fly to New York for four days to inhale a bit of metropolis life."

Jaime Alguersuari, Toro Rosso:

"The weekend after Budapest I am racing in Portimao. After that I will head for Ibiza to work on my fitness - and of course have a little fun!"
