The FinOz Racing drivers ended in 8th and 10th places on the Monaco grid. Starting positions may not be the best optimal for the very tight and twisty street track where passing is almost impossible, but both drivers were quite happy with their qualifying.

Steve Elenecevski's Qualifying comments:

"We knew that grid positions are very important at Monaco & we are not dissapointed with p8 & p10.

We feel we have a good stategy for the race & we'll just have to see how it unfolds. We'll be quite pleased to get both cars in the top 5, seeing it's our first time here."

Kari Koski's Qualifying comments:

"I'm quite pleased to my grid position, you might think 10th is disaster after many top-4 qualifyings. We believe we have right strategy for the race and it will pay of after 78 laps when chequered flag is out. I made few mistakes on my qual lap so could have been 1-2 tenths quicker but it's okay."

Team Manager comments:

"8th and 10th, you might think now FinOz is strugling but i can assure you this is just what we did expect from our qualifying. Monaco is such special event and anything can happen at the race. We will see where we are after the race and then we can analyze better our weekend.
