Scott Mansell:
"The team has worked extremely hard all weekend to make this a possibility. We knew that the weather and the car were right for a record attempt and that we should go for it in the early laps, whilst the tyres were at their best.

It is a fantastic achievement to break the lap record by 0.2 of a second and I would like to thank my family, team mates and sponsors Zig Zag for making this possible. With every race I am starting to get the best out of the Benetton Judd."
