McLaren were once again quick! De La Rosa was easily quickest in both sessions - he was more than a second faster than the fastest race driver. Toyota's Zonta came second in both sessions.
As for the race drivers, the McLarens were quick. They were 4th & 6th in session 1, and 3rd & 4th in session 2. Button was 3rd quickest in the first session, but slipped to 11th in the second.

Raikkonen and Alonso look very strong! Friday doesn't always give a fair impression of what to expect from certain teams during qualifying and the race, but Saturday can be a better estimate. BAR look like they could be in with a shout of a podium along with Renault, but regardless of where the McLarens qualify, they will be a strong force in the race.
Williams look like they'll be near the back again..
Pole Prediction:
K.Raikkonen.
EDIT:
Pole Prediction:
F.Alonso.
Raikkonen has had another engine failure..
