Just Button, Hamilton, Kovalainen and Massa have not set times so far. Timo Glock is fastest in the Toyota, 1'50"099. Raikkonen has been outbraking himself a few times. Alonso looks like he is scrubbing a few sets of intermediate tyres for possible use in qualifying - it seemed earlier in the session that the inters were much faster after a couple of laps of use. |

Sutil sets a purple first sector - that Ferrari engine must be good! |

Kubica sets the fastest time, a 1'49"993. I think the last part of this session is going to be rather like the old qualifying sessions, with every time that matters being set in the last two minutes! |

Remind me - I keep forgetting. If it's pissing down with rain for quali and the teams all run full wet setups, they're still only allowed to change the brake cooling ducts and radiator ducts if the track is declared dry for the race? |

Hamilton and Kovalainen both on track, Lewis is going quickly at the moment. Still no sign of Massa. Hamilton has set purple sector times in both of the first two sectors, looks like he will go straight to the top of the timesheets. |

Yes, Hamilton goes fastest with a 1'48"356, 1.3 seconds faster than Piquet. Massa finally leaves the garage with eight minutes to go! |

I think more changes are allowed if one or other of the sessions is declared wet, but I can't remember what is allowed to be changed. I imagine the teams would be permitted to change front wing settings to compensate for the different types of tyre, however.... |

Kovalainen half a second slower than Hamilton, but he was held up in the final sector. |
