Interesting that Fisichella has only done 1 flying lap so far today and with 4 minutes to go, it doesn't look like he is going out again. Still he is second fastest!

Williams were planning to use the same engines used in Monaco but were waiting on final checks on Thursday.

Not sure about Raikkonen but I suspect the fire did some substantial damage on his car!
