Williams driver Valtteri Bottas says that he will jump in the lake that runs alongside the paddock at the Canadian Grand Prix if he scores the team's first points of 2013 today.

Williams driver Valtteri Bottas has said that he will jump in the lake that runs alongside the paddock at the Canadian Grand Prix if he scores the team's first points of 2013 later today.

The Finn was the biggest surprise in yesterday's qualifying as he handled changeable conditions to finish third-fastest behind world champion Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton.

He now needs to finish in the top 10 this evening to guarantee Williams their first points of the season and says that jumping in the lake will be "no problem".

"I used to swim in the frozen lakes in Finland so it's no problem," he said.

You can follow live text updates of the race here on Sports Mole from 6.30pm.
