Nico Rosberg: I Have mixed emotions

Nico Rosberg topped the Protocol of the first day of testing in Barcelona, but the team once again lost time due to problems with the machine. In the first session of the German drove only 14 laps, when the gear breakage demanded the intervention of the mechanics. The Rosberg was able to return to the track after the end 54 of the circle.
Nico Rosberg: "I Have mixed emotions, in the morning we again lost time, but the day well for the program, and I headed Protocol - it's always nice to be first. Problems with reliability on the tests we have too many, but otherwise you can see that the team is moving in the right direction.
In General, I feel comfortable in the car, I'm satisfied with it, and leads it better than last year on the same track. The team has made progress in aerodynamics, the car has become more competitive - it's nice to fly. Something else we have to do to deal with the wear of the rubber, and today's program was very useful in this respect.
Tomorrow Rosberg will replace Lewis Hamilton...
