Practice One - Webber fastest for Red Bull at Interlagos |
2011-11-25 22:53:00 |
| Seven-tenths of a second separated the top six drivers after Friday morning's first practice session at Interlagos. Mark Webber set the pace for Red Bull with 1m 13.811s, but he was only 0.014s ahead of Jenson Button, who posted 1m 13.825s, and 0.150s ahead of Lewis Hamilton, who lapped in 1m 13.961s in the second McLaren. Hamilton aborted a final effort to go quicker.
Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel just failed to break into the 1m 13s with 1m 14.025s, leaving the top four just 0.214s apart, while the Ferraris had a mixed day. On his 100th appearance for them, Felipe Massa was fifth on 1m 14.507s, with Fernando Alonso sixth on 1m 14.541s. The Spaniard took a long while to get going, then stopped near the end after slowing in Turn One with similar engine troubles to those he experienced in India.

2011-10-30 20:42:00 |
| Sebastian Vettel won the 2011 Formula 1 Airtel Grand Prix of India, but it might as well have been a replay of his victory in Korea a fortnight ago as he simply ran away and hid and left Jenson Button to chase him from a distance.
Fernando Alonso and Mark Webber were even further behind while yet another clash with Felipe Massa left a bitterly disappointed Lewis Hamilton to a seventh-place finish in the McLaren behind the Mercedes duo of Michael Schumacher and Nico Rosberg.

After the Ferraris of Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa had set the pace after displacing the McLarens before being overcome by Mark Webber's Red Bull, Button put on a set of soft-compound Pirellis and lapped in 1m 31.901s, which left him 0.174s faster than Alonso's similarly equipped best of 1m 32.075s and Sebastian Vettel's third-fastest 1m 32.095s.
