"I am really interested to know where I have lost this time, because I do not think I have lost six-tenths in the other 100 laps that I have done this weekend.

"If I was three or four thousandths behind, it doesn't mean anything - it could be small differences in fuel levels or small details such as that.

"But six or seven tenths... I can't remember any time that I was so far behind anybody. That was the strange thing about (today).

"If you have not had a good weekend, you say 'okay, I did not get comfortable with the car, with this corner'... but I have been fast all weekend, also in qualifying one and two.

"To be so far behind in qualifying three - I am the most surprised of all."

Maybe the FIA would be interested to know the answer to those questions?

They should!
