F1: Round 2 practice 1 & 2
After practice 1 and 2 in Malaysia it looks like Red Bull will still be leading the pack this weekend, only with Mark Webber at the helm.
Webber set the fastest time of practice 1 and practice 2 with Lewis Hamilton and Jensen Button in the two McLaren’s right behind him. Only 0.214 second behind but in fourth position Sebastian Vettel will be looking for more pace to challenge for pole position tomorrow.
A surprising lack of pace have the Ferrari’s in 6th and 9th with Alonso struggling to get more out his prancing horse sitting in 9th, this is not the start to the season we were expecting. Tomorrows 3rd and Final practice before qualifying should give us a more realistic indication of what Ferrari are bringing to the table this weekend.
Things looked promising for Michael Schummacher, the 3rd fastest in practice 1 and the 5th fastest in practice 2, could this be the beginning of seeing old Schumy fighting for position at the front of the field?
Blog Central Prediction Mark Webber on Pole, Vettel in second on grid, Hamilton 3rd on grid, Button 4th on grid, Massa 5th on grid and may be a surprise from Schummacher getting the 6th spot. No only kidding Alonso on 6th
Race prediction: 1st Hamilton, 2nd Webber, 3rd Vettel.
