Turkish GP - Wet start to weekend
Istanbul, 6 May – Incessant rain has been the key feature so far today, thus affecting the first free practice session for the Turkish Grand Prix, round four of the Formula 1 World Championship, which takes place this Sunday at the Istanbul Speed Park. The entire session was held in the wet and Fernando Alonso posted the fastest time of 1.38.670 in the Ferrari, ahead of the Mercedes duo of Nico Rosberg (1.40.072) and Michael Schumacher (1.40.132.) In the other 150º Italia, Felipe Massa was seventh fastest in 1.40.697. It’s hard to evaluate the new aerodynamic updates in these difficult conditions, with both Ferrari men switching between extreme wet tyres and intermediates, before doing some practice starts at the end of the session. The second session takes place at 14h00 local time, with everyone hoping for an improvement in the weather.Credit: Ferrari S.p.A. (www.ferrari.com)
