Anyone watching? Ferraris look pretty bullet-proof at the moment, mainly because of their straight-line speed. They seem to have dropped the 'shark fin' this weekend. Williams and Honda rooted firmly at the back - even Force India are beating them! |

I know, but P1 is usually the more representative of the practice sessions, since they always mess about with set-ups in the afternoon. I know it doesn't mean anything but it's still good to discuss it

Tricky conditions, was spitting with rain throughout the whole session, but not enough to make a big difference. Hamilton looked a bit ragged throughout, I don't think McLaren can be happy with their pace so far. The Hondas look in desperate trouble and may struggle to stay off the back row of the grid. |

Guess who was in last the slow coaches. You know I am a fan but 19th and 3+ seconds off, WTF is going on there. I can only take consolation in that he is half a second faster than his team mate. |

Honda are clearly focussing on next year. Not that I really think they'll be contenders next year, but they might as well shift focus considering how crap their 2008 car is and that they could develop it for years and still not win a race. |
