Michael Schumacher is hoping for better in Sunday's Hungarian GP, revealing that the set-up he gambled on should work better in the race.
Schumacher had another qualifying experience to forget in Budapest where the seven-time World Champion could only manage 14th place while his team-mate Nico Rosberg booked his place in the pole position shoot-out.
But it wasn't on-track mistakes that cost Schumacher, rather it a set-up gamble that handed him his second worst grid slot of his comeback season.
"Obviously qualifying was not ideal for us today," said the Mercedes GP driver.
"After yesterday's performance, we purposely went for a different set-up which was supposed to tell us more about the car and was targeted more towards the race.
"It seemed to be reasonable this morning but as the track became hotter in qualifying, it went against us. Our set-up should work better in the race although starting from 14th place does not make it easy.
"Being on the dirty side of the starting grid does not specifically help, but I will certainly try again to have a good start tomorrow. And from then on we will have to see how the race develops."
