Kazuki's German Blog: Saturday
Posted on Saturday 19 Jul 2008 and tagged with Nakajima, kazuki, blog, germany.
The expected rain never arrived today, at least not during any of the on-track business. Final practice and qualifying were dry, and it was only when I was doing my television interviews outside the motorhome that it started to bucket down! There was a frantic scramble for umbrellas and, ultimately, no-one got too wet.We could have done with a bit of rain on the track because the grid is so close in the dry, with just two seconds covering the entire grid in Q1. I qualified 16th, but was only 0.2s away from 10th position! At least you can overtake here, so I’m still hopeful of having a good race.
One thing that I can be sure of tomorrow is support in the grandstands. There are a lot of Japanese people at this race, as I discovered during an official autograph signing session this afternoon. Before going, I practised my key German phrases, but spent more time talking to the fans in Japanese! The international reach of Formula 1 never ceases to amaze me.

14th for Nico, DNF for Rubens. Not the best day for the team, but we'll be back fighting in Monza! Well done Lewis, Mark and Robert!
