Jamie Franklin - Team Principal/Owner So this is it, our home race and final chance to escape from Q1 for the next round. Honestly, at this point, I'd love to say that we have it in the bag and that there won't be any real fear going forwards as to whether or not we're going to miss races, but we can't. In fact, I think it's going to take nothing short of a miracle to pull it out of the bag here. Maybe that's exaggerating a little, as we have certainly improved a fair bit since the opening round, and I think we were a tad unlucky last race, but that's the name of the game. We just need to throw everything at this race and hope for the best, I know that we have the talent in the team, we just need a perfect weekend. As for Enzo, I can't go into detail with that yet, but I'm excited to see what Kiara can do in the car. She'll have her home crowd backing her for her return to sport, and hopefully that'll give her the edge to pull out something fantastic. Nick Addison - Driver I'm definitely pumped for this one. Franklin's home race, and after last race I've definitely got the bit between my teeth to really get stuck in there. Hopefully the usual reliability resumes and we can just have some good scraps out there and show everyone what we're made of! Kiara Thunder - Driver It still feels a bit surreal to be racing this weekend, given that it was so unexpected. I know there's a lot of pressure on the team and on myself to deliver, it's not really a matter of can we, it's a matter of we must do this. I still feel like I've got a lot to prove, and I fully believe I can do this. Ivan Soto - Technical Director Strategy will be very important here. We have seen that pit lane here is very short so more stops can work, but weather is also big factor. I think most will go for softs and medium tyres here as we have seen a lot. I don't think it is good strategy to follow everyone else, so we will assess situation and try to go against grain. Felicia Quinn - Chief Designer Silverstone is renound for its high speed corners, so we've had to make sure that the car is as aerodynamically efficient as possible, especially for the quick changes in direction. It's a complex procedue to balance the high aero needed without causing too much drag for the straights. We've been busy at work with Honda to ensure that the gremlins from last race don't return for our home V-Prix, but you can never be sure with these machines, but we do appear to be making steady progress in a few different areas, so we just have to see whether or not its enough to overtake our rivals.
