"The realisation of what we achieved last year is something pretty special for every member of the team. "It's a new situation for the team," said Horner. Horner was clear that as champions his team are heading into unknown territory, and that with it will come a range of different pressures. So it's a case of trying to improve on those things, and go for it." "There are a lot of things I did right last year, some very proud moments, with 80% of my season in the middle being good. I've a great opportunity, and a great team around me, to try to improve on what I did last year. So the way I am approaching this year is head on again. "But as a group we went through a huge amount last year, and we certainly all learned from that. "Obviously it was very hard in the middle of a season when we're all achieving some pretty big things, as the team did last year, to tackle and learn about some of the things that went on," said Webber. Webber feels the team is stronger than last year, when differences of opinion between their two lead drivers formed the backdrop to the success achieved on the circuit. We have to stay focused, try to learn every day, to improve. This year is a different story because we want to try and defend the titles, but we have to develop from how we were last year otherwise we will be taking a step back and others will pass us. It is a difficult situation we're in, more difficult than last year when we said 'OK, let's just go for the title'. Motivation is not a problem, but we need to focus again.
"It will be a tough battle ahead, a long, hard fight. "What we achieved makes us all very proud, and no one can take it away from us, so that's a huge plus. "We've a lot of testing ahead of us, a very long season, but we are all pumped and happy to go racing again," said Vettel, who only saw the car for the first time "in one piece" this morning.
