Rosberg promises to learn from Barcelona mistake

Nico Rosberg has promised to learn from the mistake he made with his engineers in Barcelona which led to them going the wrong way with the car set-up during free practice, and consequently compromised their qualifying performance and race.

"I'm looking forward to Turkey," Rosberg said. "It was our strongest race last year in terms of pace in comparison to the front runners so I think we can do well there."

"The circuit itself is great and it should suit our car," he added. "We've spent some time analysing our performance in Spain, where we took the wrong set-up direction with the car in the opening sessions. We've learnt from that mistake so we should definitely take a step forward next weekend. I'm looking forward to it."
