CHINESE GP – FRIDAY PRACTICE
Friday 12 April 2013
CAR 2, MARK WEBBER
First Practice Session: Position: 3, Best Time: 1:37.658, Laps: 21
Second Practice Session: Position: 5, Best Time: 1:36.092, Laps: 31
“It was good today and we achieved a lot of mileage. There are obviously some pretty quick cars out there – we saw that in Malaysia before it rained in qualifying. We’re getting a lot of information, but we’re still in this early phase of learning about the tyres. I think that we have a bit of work to do, but the car doesn’t feel too bad, we just have to keep working on understanding the tyres. It’s nice to have a stable weekend in terms of weather, which is unusual in Shanghai.”
CAR 1, SEBASTIAN VETTEL
First Practice Session: Position: 4 Best Time: 1:37.942, Laps: 20
Second Practice Session: Position: 10 , Best Time: 1:36.791, Laps: 27
“Today was a tricky day for us. I struggled a bit this afternoon and the gap to the guys at the top is a little bit bigger than I’d like. There are two or three things that we need to work on and then we should be in a better shape for tomorrow. I think we know what we need to do. It looks like the soft tyre is the one for qualifying, but it seems that we won’t see that many stints on the soft tyre during the race.”

on April 13, 2013Great driving today Mark.
@Admin: Any way of getting a direct response from Webber on the “He deserved too lose” statement that Vettel made during his childish rant?

on April 13, 2013Mark, keep your cool. I’ll be mad enough for both of us.
Vettel showed what he is in the press interview yesterday. He is simply a liar and an arrogant puffed up prima donna who puts his personal interest above that of the team.
I say turn the wick up on the Red Bull cars , cancel all team orders, let them race and see who is best.
To the devil with Vettel. -
