Malaysia 2013 - Free Practice 1 results - Webber sets the pace in a dry start to the Malaysian GP weekend

Published by Christine

As ever, with FP1, there was a dull start to proceedings as all the drivers waited for each other to make the first move. Eventually, cars started to appear on track, and when they got down to it, it was Mercedes who set some early benchmark times. That was until Red Bull got involved, and Mark Webber put his car on top. Two incidents of note - Kimi Räikkönen sat out much of the session as the team worked on his car, and when he did appear on track he slipped easily into second. Also, Esteban Gutiérrez went flying off track, narrowly missing the back of Felipe Massa's Ferrari.
