Panasonic Toyota Racing will line up with both cars inside the top
eight for the Spanish Grand Prix after a closely-fought qualifying
session at the Circuit de Catalunya today. Having fine-tuned the
set-up of the TF109 overnight and in final practice, Jarno Trulli and
Timo Glock took to the track on a sunny day with a slight breeze
which saw track temperatures reach 41°C and air temperatures 21°C.
The first qualifying session was typically hectic and, after starting
with the hard Bridgestone Potenza, they made it into Q2 using the
soft options. The battle to reach the top 10 was particularly tense
but, again using the soft tyres, Jarno and Timo delivered on their
last flying laps to progress, with Timo breaking into the top three.
The final session saw three flying laps each on used soft tyres
before one final flat-out run on a new set in the closing moments,
which delivered promising grid positions for tomorrow's race.
