Heikki Kovalainen spoke to Ted Kravitz as he provides assistance to Caterham.

Heikki Kovalainen says Caterham should be beating Marussia and has backed the team to move comfortably ahead once when their update package is introduced in Barcelona.

Kovalainen also dispelled rumours that he lost his race seat with Caterham after falling out with Team Principal Tony Fernandes. "No it is false - I never fell out with him," the 31-year-old said. "I didn't agree with what they were offering me this year, I didn't agree with Tony on that, but I never fell out with him. "Then at some point, I think it was at the Australian Grand Prix in qualifying when the weather was quite tricky, I sent a message to Tony and said 'I would have been in Q2,' and then we started discussions about it again and he said 'would you like to come and test our car'."
