Toro Rosso have more horsepower - that is not a secret. It could be up to 10% more. Am I screaming and shouting? No, but if people ask me whether they have an advantage then I have to say yes.

If people ask me if they (Toro Rosso) have an advantage, I have to say yes. At the moment the advantage is there. Fact.

However, since the start with the new car at Barcelona in January, our team showed what it's capable of.

If people ask me if they have an advantage, I have to say yes. They were in the same second as Honda here (at Bahrain during winter testing). They were strong in the tests and I am convinced they could even go for a podium here.

The lap times improved continuously throughout the tests and the long runs were OK compared to the fastest.

Gary deserved his chance and he has seized it. In the last two years in the DTM Championship he proved his talent against tough competition. His promotion to the Formula One team demonstrates that DTM is also a springboard for young talents who can make their way through touring cars to the top category of motor sport.
