    Mark Hughes' practice pointers

    - Tricky session for qualifying prep, track temperature expected to be higher later, this will change the way the tyres work

    - Look for further confirmation of promising revised Red Bull as the team strives to chip away at 0.3s deficit to Ferrari.

    - Ferrari cautiously optimistic it is on top of the mechanical niggles of yesterday but wary of pace of revised Mercedes.

    Lewis Hamilton has the bulk of Mercedes running on his shoulders at the moment and he's taken to the track for his out lap.

    Although Hamilton said last night that the W08 didn't feel particularly different to drive around Barcelona compared to pre-season testing, he gave the thumbs-up to their striking new upgrade after setting the pace in both practice sessions.

    Mercedes also have an improved engine here, but Bottas's issues means he reverts to the older spec for the rest of the weekend. Hamilton is sticking with the brand new power pack, so should theoretically have at least a small power advantage.

    the problem with overtaking on track is really showing, i hope they find a way to make it easier for cars to follow and overtake.

    "I'm struggling with the front end, just sliding a lot," reports Raikkonen.

    Fernando Alonso launched some scathing criticism of Honda following his Friday Practice letdown at the Spanish GP.

    In quotes picked up by the PA, Alonso said: "It’s not my career. It is not my ability. It is not my image. It is their (Honda’s) career. Their ability, their money, and their image.

    “I drive to support the team, and drive as fast as I can, but the problem is not entirely mine. It is a much bigger problem for them."
