2008 Canadian F1 GP - Friday Practice

Interesting day one in Montreal. Felipe Massa was fastest in the wet / dry first practice but retired with mechanical problems before the end of practice two. Lewis Hamilton was the quickest driver on the track in the second practice ahead of impressive Robert Kubica and Kimi Raikkonen.

Fernando Alonso (spun off) and Timo Glock (touched a wall a bit too much) had also their practice two cut short.

Although it is difficult to make anything out of the Friday times, it does look like we have three way battle (Ferrari, McLaren, BMW Sauber) on cards in Montreal… Elsewhere Toro Rosso had a good day, Honda had not … More photos and some sounds from Friday in Montreal coming a bit later tonite … (Friday times inside the post)
