A delighted Jaime Alguersuari was left reflecting on his best ever qualifying performance after he qualified his Toro Rosso an impressive sixth on the grid for the Belgian Grand Prix.
"This was my best ever performance and the best for the team this year," said Alguersuari. "I think I have to be very happy with this and also because my team-mate came very close to Q3, which shows we have done a good job, not just on the car but in the way we managed the session, being the first out of the pits to get a clear track."
Alguersuari put his qualifying performance down to how well the car behaved on the extreme wet and intermediate tyres but he is confident the car can perform well in the expected dry conditions on Sunday.
"The weather helped, because the car worked very well on the intermediates and the extreme wets, but we have also been quick in dry conditions. We knew we had a better car here than in Hungary and we have learned a lot about it so far this weekend. Certainly the DRS is now working better than ever before.
"Hopefully tomorrow I can do a good job again and score some more points and I believe we have a good chance of doing that, if we stay calm, because our car has a good pace. The start from the third row will be very important and maybe tricky and I hope it stays dry."
