Live Event Coverage

Spain 2009 - Free Practice 3 - Cloud cover but warm weather awaits drivers at Barcelona

Published by Christine

We didn't see too much out of the ordinary yesterday, so we're hoping for exciting things today. Perhaps FP3 will not be the place for action, but maybe it will.

Weather update

So far it looks as though the cloud may continue today but the weather will be a little warmer. Of course, all forecasts are usually incorrect, and there was talk of rain, so you never know what might happen.

One to watch

Buemi needs a beady eye on him. The youngster suffered from brake issues yesterday and still managed to beat his teammate, so perhaps Bourdais also needs to be kept an eye on as well. The pair of them make an interesting inter-team battle.

Predictions please

Will Rosberg make it two practices in a row? Will Button be able to regain the top spot? Have BMW got any pace at all? Will Piquet be able to regain some dignity after yesterday's embarrassments?
