There is clearly a concern from Michelin but we have no confirmed news yet.

Only Montoya and Coulthard have set times. All the others have done a few out/in laps.

Toyota are clearly concerned, Zonta did just 1 lap, Trulli none!

Session over!

Full results

Kimi Raikkonen is the first out.

It remains to be seen whether the Michelin runners will set times this session
