i doubt if 'more quickly' is correct. The comparative degree of 'quick' is 'quicker', hence you would rather say 'quicker'
I would say they are both equally correct.

Ravstarr - you are incorrect. I agree that the comparative of 'quick' is 'quicker', but when it follows a verb, you must use the adverb, which is 'more quickly'.
