The weekend has got off to a good start, as although there was a brief respite in the action this morning, there was plenty to look out for as well.

Weather update

The weather for today looks as though it will remain sunny, although there may the odd cloud getting in the way. The humidity is a little over 50%, and the wind is perhaps stronger than teams were expecting but not obstructive as yet.

One to watch

The BMW boys are navigating the circuit with a seriously disturbing looking car, but so far it seems to be working. Free Practice times, and BMWs in particular, are not to be believed, but have they found any of the pace they were looking for?

Predictions please

Button topped the timesheets in FP1, so will he be able to continue the Brawn domination? The McLaren's were somewhere near the back, but are they just dragging their heels before the action really gets going?
