Robert struggles in Q2, ends up in 14th spot

Dutchman Robert Doornbos has been uncharacteristically slow thus far in the weekend. Coming to grips with a new circuit, and fighting demons with the car set-up, Robert will have to battle his way through the field from the fourteenth spot on the grid in tomorrow’s race. If anyone knows how to come from behind and challenge for the win, it is Robert. He came from last to capture the victory in San Jose, and with a little luck he can do it again. This talented driver has been nominated for the 2007 Autosport Award’s Rookie of the Year title, which team-mate Dan Clarke was also nominated for last year. This nomination makes it two consecutive years the team has received this honor. Go to www.autosport.com to vote.

ROBERT DOORNBOS: “This is a great place to race, and a fantastic circuit, but I’m sure it would be even more fun if we were at the front. We’ve been chasing the car these past two events and we’re definitely struggling here. We’re usually quick on street courses so I’m a bit confused. It will be a long afternoon tomorrow, but hopefully the end result will be good.”
