It is a challenging place to start the year because the circuit is probably the hardest for brakes of the whole season. The circuit is surrounded by sand and it can also get very hot, which can pose problems with the cooling of a new car. So reliability will be key, especially with this year's switch to V8 engines.

It's probably something we're going to have to baby a bit all year,

We had a very successful test with the TF105B, which features a different front suspension from the TF105, ... We had a problem with the power steering at the previous test, but here at Silverstone we were able to eradicate it.

It's a massive game. It's probably the most important game that we've played all year long. We really now have no margin for error at all. So we've got to go on the road and play well and we really need to win. There's really no ifs ands or buts about it. We really have to go and play well and win a game, which we're certainly capable of doing.

Last year, we started seven freshmen, and this year we will probably only start two. That makes it a lot easier for us to compete because we will have maturity and experience.

In the last year or so, this has really taken off like a freight train without brakes.
