Mixed day for Red Bulls

Red Bull Racing had a mixed day at Monaco today with Webber finishing thirteenth overall while Coulthard ended up fourteenth.

"We got through all our programme, but there is still some work to do, assuming we are looking at a dry qualifying and a dry race," Webber said. "At the moment the car is not suiting the track that well, but we know what we need to do to sort it out." 

Coulthard commented, "I lost some track time this morning with a throttle actuator problem and it's never good to miss out on any track time, especially here in Monaco. It meant we had to adjust our programme for this afternoon, to make sure I got more laps in and got myself back up to speed. I think I've recovered reasonably well, but in Monaco, the time you have the most knowledge of the track is on the last of the 78 laps on Sunday afternoon. So, not the best of starts, but I think we are now in good shape for the rest of the weekend."
