Davidson now tops the timesheets with a 1:17.401.

Just over 15 minutes remaining and only 7 drivers have set lap times!

Kubica goes fastest with a 1:16.628 with Wurz moving into second with a 1:16.785

Under 10 minutes remaining.

The 1st session is usually quiet but with a wet track and a track that is the most used by teams for testing, we don't expect much action this session!

The 2 Ferraris are on the track. Whether they try to set a time or not remains to be seen.

Looks like the 2 Ferraris are going for a timed lap just before the end of the session.
