    I'm afraid you forced my hand Cosicave, hope we can remain as friends, though I might need a few not606 pounds to get a taxi to the bank later...

    I wasn't aware of that fact, I feel di Resta should bring it up some time.

    Oh look, the first scene of Paul on TV.

    Did he ever say he beat Seb in F3? I don't think he has!

    Ha! Certainly, we can remain friends!

    As for "forcing your hand", I should apologise if you felt under pressure from me! - You are well set to take a giant leap forward this weekend.

    If you're really unlucky, you'll have nothing for the taxi, so you may have to stick your thumb out!

    Don't worry, I'll give you a lift&#8230;

    Mclaren's on the top, a little competition between Hamilton and Button is emerging..I think.

    Yes, EMSC. If it were not for Button's grid penalty, I'd have tipped him for the win this weekend.

    Even with it, I expect him to go well.

    Seb still looking for the correct setup to go with it looks like at the moment. Shouldn't see fast times from him this late into FP1 but more into FP2.

    This is a Button type of track if I can say so, very smooth and flowing. Yeah Silver, Vettel is not wanting to smash into the top times yet.
    Alonso doing high fuel runs.
    Lotus probably doing the same. Kobayashi is looking handy, and Mercedes look solid.

    Seb must have been entirely focusing on high fuel runs in this session the way Herbert is going about Sebs attitude.

    Anyway see you all in a bit ;)

    Exactly what I did, but I have only just woken up.
    I slept through the start, because I just could't handle it.

    Senna and Hulkenberg are looking strong.
