Ed,
What was the difference in the track conditions between the start of the session and the end. Was Michael's time set when the track was drier or was he genuinely much quicker?

The rain did get heavier towards the end of the session however Michael's time is still impressive given that it is his first and only time he set.
Of course with Michael's off, the others will be more conservative as well.
Hopefully we'll get a better picture in the next hour - if the Ferrari mechanics get to fix Michael's car in time!
