The official statement of Jos after friday's session: "We did our first run this morning on new tyres, but after that, we had big understeer, which of course has been a problem for much of the year. We've always had it here, so it isn't anything new."

"We worked hard to get rid of the understeer and made some major changes to improve the car between sessions, but then suffered an engine failure in the second half of the session and never really found if we had managed to cure the handling problem."
