Brazil Race Reaction (BMW巴西站賽後訪問)

Robert Kubica: "The race started pretty well, especially after my problem in qualifying. I had to push right from the start because of my three stop strategy. Everything was going all right until I got the call to reduce the rpm of the engine because the temperatures were too high. Then when I was behind Nico Rosberg I was losing a lot of time each lap. In the last ten laps I was having lots of problems with the tyres and I was just trying to keep the car on the track. In the end if was a good season for the team."

Nick Heidfeld: "We have cracked the hundred points' milestone, and it was a fantastic season. At the start Robert passed me, as he had the advantage of a lighter car and the clean line on the grid. During the race graining was an issue with the front tyres as well as the rear tyres, and this resulted in a couple of mistakes, but this must have been the case for everybody. But still in the final stint I was fourth until Nico Rosberg outbraked me. The manoeuvre was hard and on the limit, but if I had not opened the door we would have crashed. We both went on the dirt a little bit and Robert squeezed through. At the very end I was faster than him again but couldn't go by. I find it unbelievable that Kimi Räikkönen has won the World Championship."

Mario Theissen (BMW Motorsport Director): "First of all congratulations to Kimi Räikkönen who won the world championship title in a real thriller today. For our team it was a great finish to a very good season. With positions five and six we reached the 100 point mark in the final race and scored almost three times as many points as in the previous season. I would like to thank the drivers and the whole team - not only here at the track, but especially in Munich and Hinwil. With this we have created a good basis for the coming season."

Willy Rampf (Technical Director): "For us it was a very good ending to the season which gave us 101 points in only our second season with the BMW Sauber F1 Team. We went into the race with two different strategies - Robert with an aggressive three stopper, Nick with two stops. Both paid off well. Compliments to the whole team for the great job everybody has done during the season. Congratulations to Kimi Räikkönen who was crowned champion in a very dramatic race."

Robert Kubica: 由於採用三停策略我知道一起跑就得要趕路了，起跑之後一切都很順利，直到車隊叫我降低引擎轉速，因為引擎溫度偏高，後來跟在Nico後面時讓我損失了不少時間，最後十圈裡輪胎狀況也不少，我只能努力地將賽車穩定地保持在賽道內。

Nick Heidfeld:破紀錄地我們拿到一百分耶~ 比賽開始時Robert車較輕而且從乾淨的線起跑，所以我被他超掉了。前後輪胎有點狀況，不過這現象應該每位車手都有才是。後半段我原本在第四位但後來被Nico超掉了，那次的超越其實有點驚險，如果我關了門大概會一起撞出去吧，當時兩輛車都跑進了比較髒的那條線上而且Nico不斷朝我這邊擠過來。最後幾圈我雖然比他快但已經追不上了。而我最不敢相信的是kimi竟然拿到了世界冠軍~~

Mario Theissen (BMW Motorsport Director):今天首先我要恭喜Kimi獲的世界冠軍，車隊能用這樣的成績當作賽季結尾讓我們覺的很高興: 因2007獲得的積分差不多是去年的3倍！我要感謝車手及在慕尼黑/Hinwil/比賽中賣力付出的全體工作人員，因為大家的努力我們已經為明年賽季打下良好的基礎。

Willy Rampf (Technical Director): 這不過是BMW第二個賽季我們就獲得了101分，說真的很振奮人心！比賽裏兩輛車策略並不相同，Robert大膽採用三停，Nick兩停，但最後都發揮預期的效果。在這場戲劇性的比賽裡我要恭喜kimi獲他第一座的世界冠軍~~
