Disappointing qualifying result for Senna

Bruno Senna is struggling to comprehend how he only managed to come 24th in today's qualifying for the Hungarian Grand Prix. It is the first time the Brazilian has graced the Hungaroring but still expected to be closer than almost three seconds off the pace. Senna is not expecting anything better tomorrow as he and the team are unsure of how to improve the set-up.

Senna said: "I've never been to this circuit, but that is not an excuse for the qualifying. I really, really don't know what to say and we are scratching our heads here. I can't see how to make up 2.7 seconds.

"I've looked at my corners and it's really baffling. Maybe we are struggling a bit with the bumps, like we did in Monaco, it's something we need to look at on the data. The worst thing is that the car actually feels okay. I have a little bit of oversteer, a little bit of understeer but it's not a lot and I don't have a lack of grip or anything."
