German GP Friday and Saturday Free Practice

Atlast, Hamilton out on track

Edit: So is BJ & Massa

BBC F1 pit-lane reporter Ted Kravitz: "We've crunched the numbers from Friday practice and the results are good for Mark Webber, but suggest this session will need some more improvement from the other frontrunners. Webber was quickest on both his lower-fuel run and on his longer race-stint simulation on the soft tyre. By his own admission, Sebastian Vettel has 'room for improvement', and the lap times suggest he needs to find at least 0.2secs a lap to match his team mate. Fernando Alonso looks to be Webber's closest challenger, but his race pace was harder to read due to the Spaniard going off the track as he pushed the limits. As Webber said: 'You never know when McLaren are going to show up.' This is a crucial session for them to find some speed, as from Friday's evidence, Lewis Hamilton was approaching half a second off Webber's pace."

yeah, it was same yesterday, I guess it because of low temperatures on track. It will be very hard in rain to to stay on track.

Half of the session prety much over, both Ferraris going out.

Clearly,he has not fast car for this race so that is why he tried to show his speed in pitlane ha ha ha!!!

**Kyss4k** · 23rd July 2011, 10:33

yeah, dont care, personally, because we are faster. maybe Hamilton was on low fuek, cos he pitted straight after 2 laps.

**Hermann** · 23rd July 2011, 10:36

Wow they are all very close

Button did a longer run, and his laptime is also closer to Fernando. Looks like we have a three-way battle here.

**Rishu** · 23rd July 2011, 10:39

Whats up with Felipe? he looks off pace

**Kingdom Hearts** · 23rd July 2011, 10:39

I think Fernando looks good with medium tyre, Felipe not that much.

**Forzi** · 23rd July 2011, 10:41

Some changes being done on Felipes brakes.

I think Felipe still struggling with bring the tyres up to temperature, therefore the tyres not performing at their best when they are fresh. It took Fernando about 2 - 3 laps to go quick as well.

He is just 2-3 tenths of his normal pace this year (compared to Alonso). I want to see Felipe fighting for the first place, this is killing me

**Rishu** · 23rd July 2011, 10:45

Can we discuss FP3 please?

**Greig** · 23rd July 2011, 10:46

so far looks like the updates have brought us onto par with Red Bull, we won't be walking away with it like in Silverstone though.

**luicchi** · 23rd July 2011, 10:47

Lets find out Ferraris on options

**luicchi** · 23rd July 2011, 10:49

oh....ok rosberg was on softs...and we now started

**tifosi_kaka** · 23rd July 2011, 10:52

A big Lol at the BBC commentators, as if they have not watched any Free Practices at all! Most drivers do a quick then slow lap on the softs, the slow lap to cool the tyres a bit I guess.

**Stormsearcher** · 23rd July 2011, 10:52

whats happening guys. My video link is terrible. cant watch anything.

just heard alonso topping sheets at the moment.

**Forzi** · 23rd July 2011, 10:53

Felipe looks like strugling a bit on getting the tires up to working tempetures. 3 laps in a row with the time improving every lap. Might be a problem in Q3.

**Grinsomx** · 23rd July 2011, 10:55

and there comes RB

**NJB13** · 23rd July 2011, 10:55

And this is us with a problem of heating our tyres, hate to see what we'd do in warm weather
