Maybe in practice but he was happier than he was in Malaysia so wait until qualifying

Karthikeyan moves into second however Trulli and then Ralf go fastest.

The track is getting cleaner, more drivers are out and the times are tumbling.

Ed · Post by Ed » Sat Apr 02, 2005 4:28 pm

Trulli goes fastest now with a 1:32.776 and still going faster.

Top 3 are Toyota powered cars!

Ed · Post by Ed » Sat Apr 02, 2005 4:30 pm

Just 15 minutes to go and only half the field have set lap times!

Top 8: Trulli, R Schumacher, Karthikeyan, Klien, Coulthard, Massa, Monteiro and Sato
