    Massa has another slide beside the wall

    Why is de la rosa being put into drive? Is Perez out because of his monaco shunt?

    Autosport is reporting that Perez felt unwell. Although he set the 11th fastest lap in P1.

    With Schumacher, De la Rosa and Barrichello on the grid, this race is starting to turn into Last of the Summer Wine.

    At first I thought it was Jacques Villeneuve, but apparently it's Virgin's test driver Robert Wickens.

    similar sort of damage to Vettels crash for the two of them, maybe a bit more damage with the higher speed

    bit of damage to Hamiltons car related to punture he just picked up before red flag came out, but seems to be okay since he's heading out again

    Can I listen to the BBC 5live guys commentate on the practice, in a legit way?

    IF so anyone got a link?

    Legit way. Get a freesat dish & receiver - any old sky box will work. Maplin, Lidl etc do cheap Freesat gear.

    No so legit go here & follow instructions:

    I guess not very surprising, not a circuit to be without kers, presume they'll fix it for qualifying

    Very hard to gauge performance as we've no idea what fuel loads they're running and what set-ups they're testing. The Ferrari's look excellent on the super softs and Rosberg is looking good. But with the tyre situation it'll be hard to know what qualifying and practice tell us as the race will be a different kettle of fish.

    He's just gone fastest. Red Bulls starting to look ominously good for pole again. :(

    That last lap by Vettel was amazing to watch. McLarens look a bit out of sorts so far.

    must be low fuel, fair bit faster than last years qualifying

    crash for de la rosa, not too bad actually

    Another wrecking match for Sauber. Though just as Crofty says it I have to say it's not as bad on the second look. DLR looking fine too.

    Hefty enough shunt for De La Rosa. At least the session had finished.

    Time for a walk and back in time for quali.:)
