QUESTIONS FROM THE FLOOR:

Q: (Matthias Brunner - Motor Sport Aktuell)
For Kimi and Michaeꦆl,🌺 did the rain last night affect the track and your tyre choice?

Kimi RAIKKONEN:
Was it raining? I did not notice. I was ♕in the hotel all even♋ing so I had no idea. I didn't know it had rained so it didn't affect me at all.

Michael SCHUMACHER:
Yes𝓡, it was obviously a bit more slippery this morning, so the rubber (that was) put down was taken away by the rain, but it went back up quickly and as to the ty🎶re choice I think he is on Michelins and I am on Bridgestones....

Q:
Your tyre choice..

MS:
Oh, did it affect? Ah, sorry... No.

Q: (Juha Paatalo - Financial Times Deutschland)
Michael𒊎, at this stage of the championship any small thing can make the difference. Fernando lost some parts of his car after he had that puncture. Were you informed and what were your thoughts?

MS:
I was informed, but that was i🦹t and I concentrated on myself.

Q: (Dieter Rencken - The Citizen)
To all drivers, there have been suggestions abಌout the safety standards of this circuit. What are your commꦐents?

MS:
We are not very happy on one particular point, which is the second chicane which we as drivers have felt for many years has not been up to the standards. There is a solution as we have been doing many years ago with the first chicane, which had the same problem. For whatever reason, other things get changed, but the main and worst particular item does not get changed. And yesterday at the GPDA meetingℱ it was quite a discussion about it and we all felt very unhappy about it.

KR:
That was a good answer I 🍌think and I don't want to get involved in that situation so it is not going to change by talking about what we decided in he🏅re.

Nick HEIDFELD:
Nothing to add.

Q: (Matthias Brunner - Motor Sport Aktuell)
Michael, very often start position thr🌜ee is preferable to P2. How is that usually at Monza?

MS:
It's 🌄true, but I don't kno🦂w. I don't know. I don't have the past in my mind at the moment.
