Silverstone: Romain Grosjean will start from eighth on the grid and Kimi Räikkönen right behind him in ninth after Saturday's qualifying for the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

After a promising Q1 session where the cars finished P3 and P4, Q2 and Q3 proved to be more difficult at the team’s local circuit. Kimi ran with a Device-equipped E21, whilst Romain ran with a new slimline bodywork package.

Kimi Räikkönen said that they would go into the race wanting to get a better result. “It was a close qualifying session between both of the team’s cars so I think we both got pretty much all there was from the car today. It’s not ideal as we’d like to be nearer the front of the grid, but it is what it is. We’ll go into the race wanting to get a better result than we did in qualifying. Usually this is what happens for us and and hopefully that is the case again tomorrow,” said Raikkonen.

Meanwhile, Romain Grosjean said he was quite satisfied with his performance. “Whilst were very quick on the hard tyres at the beginning of qualifying, we weren’t as competitive on the mediums, I don’t know if it’s the weather or something else, but we weren’t as good on them as in free practice this morning meaning we didn’t have enough to qualify further up the grid. We are working hard and in the right direction, but the tyres are still playing a key part. I’m quite satisfied with my performance today,” said Grosjean.
