Looking ahead to Suzuka

The team heads back to the Far East this week for Round 16 of this year's World Championship. The Japanese Grand Prix takes place at the legendary Suzuka Circuit which is a great favourite amongst the drivers. Suzuka has a unique figure-of-eight layout including famous corners such as the Spoon Curve and the high-speed 130R and has seen some fantastic racing over the years.

Nico rates Suzuka as one of the best tracks of the calendar: "Suzuka is technically challenging, really quick and just a real drivers' circuit which demands the best out of you and the car. The first sector is definitely the highlight of the lap and part of what makes the whole layout so demanding. We've had a decent run of results, considering our performance, with one sixth place and two fifth places so we will be hoping to continue that at Suzuka this weekend."

Michael also loves Suzuka and is looking forward to his return: "Driving the track is simply sensational. Suzuka is technically demanding and has interesting corner combinations so it is a really good feeling when you get it together. I'm heading to Japan with some good memories and I hope that we can add more. I am definitely up for the challenge and I am sure we will try to get the maximum out of our weekend."
