Friday morn update.....
The predictions of rain for the opening practice session of the Brazilian Grand Prix weekend proved correct as light rain fell throughout the 90 minute session. This limited track time for many of the front-runners with Kimi Raikkonen leaving it until the final ten minutes of the session before heading out and vaulting to the top of the timesheets ahead of Ferrari team-mate Felipe Massa.
Raikkonen set the pace on a 1:19.580s around the challenging 4.309km anti-clockwise circuit with Massa almost half a second down in the second F2007. McLaren Mercedes runners Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso also had limited running with the latter completing just an installation lap and not completing a timed lap.
Heikki Kovalainen was third fastest in his Renault while team-mate Giancarlo Fisichella completed a couple of installation laps but did not set a time. Nico Rosberg was fourth fastest in his Williams Toyota as he aims to put the disappointing Chinese Grand Prix weekend behind him as new team-mate Kazuki Nakajima gained plenty of track experience on his way to the 16th fastest time.
