Last year the best time from the 2nd practice on Friday was a 1:26.822 (Davidson - Honda test driver), given the changes in the tyres, the gap isn't surprising.

Expect the times tomorrow to be closer to last year.

I'm new to this forum and haven't had a chance to look around, but is everyone as impressed with Hamilton as I am?

Welcome to forums Senna girl.

Hamilton is impressive no doubt. When was the last time Ron Dennis put a rookie in his cars ?
Snowy here will be delighted to hear this :wink:

Webber once again is fastest at the speed trap. Interesting that Alonso isn't in the top 6!
