Nico Rosberg thanked Lewis Hamiltons mechanics after a huge Mercedes team effort managed to get him out for qualifying for the Austrian Grand Prix.Rosbergs weekend took a dramatic turn on Saturday morning when a suspension failure caused a heavy crash in final practice. The damage required a new gearbox, automatically giving him a five-place grid penalty, though he managed to negate some of the damage by finishing qualifying in second position.The championship leader will line up seventh for the grand prix but his immediate focus after the session was on the quick fix to his car.?It was an unbelievable job from everybody, Rosberg said. Even Lewis mechanics came over to my car to try and get it out in time, so that was a huge team effort.Qualifying was really exciting and it was unbelievable how quickly it dried at the end. Lewis just did a great job, and second isnt first but its OK.The German driver says he did his best to avoid the kerbs in qualifying.The suspension broke on the kerb, the normal exit kerb. The first one, the thin one ... For sure yeah, stay off them. I stayed off them in qualifying most of the time, except for when it really counted.Though Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton set their quickest laps on the ultra-soft tyre, Ferraris drivers set theirs on the super-soft tyre -- meaning they have the optimum strategy for Sundays race in the dry. Rosberg thinks Fridays limited running means tyres are still something of an unknown going into the grand prix.Tyres are going to be tough tomorrow, I think we dont know because the temperature is going to drop so much, we dont know how the tyres are going to be. For sure in the hot it was really tough and maybe in the cold it is going to be better.
