Slow

Alonso was the main talk of today, with a breakdown and a fastest lap in two very different sessions. The only other notable thing was the track, but you can hear all about it in today's F1 Digest.

Free Practice 1

A very slow start to a pretty uneventful session. Alonso had the major problem, whilst the others just seemed to struggle for grip.

Free Practice 2

More grip issues, due to a much warmer track, but that didn't stop Alonso taking the top spot, despite his earlier problems.

Conclusions

Some unusual faces towards the sharp end of the timesheets, with Vettel showing particularly well, and very happy about it.
