If you feel that you can get through a season with 10 sets of parts, but you make 20 just in case, that's wasteful - but if you make 12, that's a small insurance policy.
More Quotes from Pat Symonds:
The real similarity I see between Michael Schumacher and Fernando is their self-belief. Like Michael, Fernando has total conviction in his own abilities - he is able to see the target he has to reach and then go out and achieve it. It is almost as if these guys set a personal best every time they get in the car. I think it is characteristic of champions, that ability to perform when it counts.Pat Symonds
Fernando looks a little further back on the grid than normal. However, we have managed our weekend with our main challengers in mind, and we feel that we have done the right thing to get the best possible result in tomorrow's race.

The team is in a very strong position now after three races, but there are still 15 to go. We have some important test sessions coming up in the next fortnight and we are still working hard to improve the performance of the car.

We tried to get Fernando a lap of clean air to beat Michael in the pits and it didn't quite work.
