Di Grassi unhappy with amount of traffic
08 May 2009 / Results / PhotosLucas di Grassi wasn't very pleased with the busy track on Friday at Circuit de Catalunya. The Brazilian missed out on pole by just 0.021 but mainly complained about the amount of traffic on track rather than missing out on pole position.
Racing Engineering driver Di Grassi was happy to be well on the pace here in Spain but hopes to see a solution for the amount of traffic on track during the GP2 session. Speaking after scoring a front row for Saturday's race Di Grassi said: "The only thing that I'm not very happy about this weekend is the amount of traffic we have. I don't know if it's because the tyres are softer and people are getting less laps and it tends to cool down or whatever, but from free practice until now it was difficult to make some clear laps.
"Sometimes, and not at this stage of the championship although Monaco is the next round and that is a track where we always have problems, but it becomes more of a gamble than actually a performance qualifying: you could have some drivers losing a second a lap because of traffic. I think Romain had traffic on his, I had traffic on both of my laps, and a lot of people are going to complain of it as well. The only thing I can see that I was not happy with: other than that everything went perfect."
