Sep.30 (GMM) Alex Wurz expressed frustration with the media in Japan.

It was pointed out to the Austrian veteran that his qualifying defeat to Williams teammate Nico Rosberg at Fuji Speedway extended the dreadful tally to 1:14 for 2007.

Even with Rosberg's ten-position penalty for an engine change, Wurz will still start the Japanese grand prix behind the impressive German.

"Why do we have to talk about the same topic eternally?" Wurz, 33, snapped at journalists when asked about his struggle for qualifying pace, according to sportnet.at.

True to the adverse weather forecasts, the area surrounding Mt. Fuji dawned wet on Sunday, although not as foggy as it was for qualifying.

A start behind the safety car is a very real possibility, as it was still raining less than an hour before the scheduled green light at 1.30pm.
