Australian Grand Prix - Final Qualifying
November 11, 1995
Mika Salo and Ukyo Katayama slipped positions during the second qualifying
session for the Australian Grand Prix. Like some other drivers, Mika's best
time today (1 min 19.083 sec) was slower than in the Friday session, as was
Ukyo's (1 min 19.114 sec). They will start the race from the seventh and
eighth rows of the grid respectively.
Mika Salo: "I knew we would lose one position because of Jean Alesi but I am
upset because we lost two positions with Gianni Morbidelli now also ahead of
us. We lost grip and the hot weather always handicaps us."
Ukyo Katayama: "I found the car to be getting better and better in the
hotter conditions, but the track was more slippery than yesterday and this
morning..."
Mika Gascoyne, Deputy Technical Director: "We are usually better in the race
than in qualifying. It is a very long and hard race with a lot of
retirements, and with our reliability, we are looking forward to the
possibility of ending the season with some more points."
Takaaki Kimura, Yamaha F1 Project Leader: "Obviously we would have like to
have improved on yesterday's times, but with the fast-rising track
temperature this proved to be a difficult task. Tomorrow we will be hoping
for a two-car finish and the chance of some points."
