Almost a regular feature in the test session this pre-season is the red flag in the last 5 minutes! We have another one and this time it is Button in the McLaren!

It is unlikley that the session will restart as there is only 2 minutes remaining

The time that Mark Webber did today was with a low fuel car!
So it doesn't mean anything. What the williams did is surprising I think, they were not that quick in earlier tests!
