Difficult session for Jimenez brings P12

A1 Team Brazil driver Sergio Jimenez had a difficult day at Zandvoort on Saturday. The Brazilian had never driven the car in wet conditions before and found the car very difficult to drive in the tricky conditions.

Sergio Jimenez commented on today's action: "I've never driven the car in the wet before so it was difficult today. We also had some problems with the car and it was very difficult to drive. At the beginning we were so slow - we changed some things and improved, then in final qualifying we made one very good change which made everything better. If it rains tomorrow hopefully we can use that as a base to move up the grid. We already know we have a good dry set-up which we proved in our testing at Silverstone, so hopefully we can make some improvements tomorrow."
