Well, I don't know where J_B is so I guess I shall make the thread.
McLaren appears to have the edge coming into this weekend and it seems as though Ferrari is caught a bit on the back foot.
The first practice session started wet, but later on in the session the track dried and the drivers could get some fast times. Alonos managed a good 4th, faster than Kimi. Vettel even managed a faster time than the BMWs in first practice.
In practice 2, Lewis was nearly 7 tenths ahead of 2nd placed Felipe Massa, this is pretty remarkable considering that not even 7 tenths separated 5th place from 14th. BMW continues to have trouble after their first win at Canada with Nico's Williams managing to get the better of both BMW's in both sessions.
