Miezi, Ulli and me are in Barcelona since today. We will see Kimi tomorrow and saturday driving The other days we will see Barcelona, sorry Seb Priorities
I can imagine we would all be amazed by the lap times if Mercedes decided to have a go with the softs or the super softs. Since they have pretty fast laps with the mediums.

Btw it seems rain has stopped for now.
quote14:24 Massa wastes no time - he's moved to the top of the times with a 1m24.687.
With the mediums!
quote14:37 Massa rolls out a 1m23.500s. Fastest time of the day and faster than any of the times we saw last week.

quote14:46 We told you earlier about some of the drivers enjoying support in the grandstand. Here's an LAT pic of those cheering for Kimi. We're not entirely sure what the sign means...
Win or lose, it's been a relatively quiet day from Ferrari. Kimi's completed 41 laps (only more than Button) and hasn't really caught the eye. But there's still two hours of running to go.
14:47 Kimi has just left the pits for the first time in a long time, no doubt to the delight of his fans. Commentator's summon?
quote15:04 We’ve just been visited by KARUN CHANDHOK, back from some more time in the field, with an update on Ferrari’s progress and Massa’s pace.
“Kimi looks quite good. Watching slow speed turn-in at the last chicane, Kimi looks really good, and at high-speed it looks reasonable but not as good as the Williams. But it looks like he’s focusing more on race runs.
“The Williams looked really balanced on the softs, when Massa went for that laptime. It looks like on the medium they were doing race set-up work, they built in some understeer to protect the rear tyres; pushing the fronts and protecting the rears. When they went for the soft, the car looked really good for that one lap."
quoteThe day's final lap count: Ericsson - 122 Massa - 103 Sainz - 86 Raikkonen - 80 Kvyat - 75 Grosjean - 75 Hamilton - 48 Button - 7
