It was a slow start to the weekend this morning, with a dusty track and some hesitant (lazy?) drivers. Let's hope FP2 has more to offer.

Weather update

It's still hot, and the breeze is picking up slightly, now at 8mph. The drivers are struggling with a lack of grip in the rear tyres, so that is something to keep an eye on.

One to watch

Sutil managed to get his Force India into fourth at one point, and finished the morning sixth. The team have brought a raft of improvements, so let's see if anything sticks.

Predictions please

Will Rosberg get his name on the top of a Free Practice session this weekend? Can Kovalainen really continue to beat Hamilton? Will Badoer make it anything but last today?
