Friday's free practice ends pleasantly for Mercedes. Lewis Hamilton takes pole twice during the first two free practices. Nico Rosberg said after practice: "The track is really great and the small improvements throughout the season are starting to bear fruit". "I was very happy with how the free practice sessions went" expressed Lewis Hamilton, "it's the first time as far as I can remember that the 2nd free practice went really well for me." A glimmer of hope for the competition, especially the Silver Arrows? Can the spell of Red Bull's/Sebastian Vettel's superiority finally be broken? It would bring more excitement to Formula 1. In addition, Vettel is getting on the nerves of the other drivers more and more with his behavior and individual out-of-place, disparaging remarks he makes, which has brought some unrest into the paddock. Kimi Raikkönen escapes with a scare during the first free practice session when he crashes his racing car; fortunately, nothing happened to him. Meanwhile, a typhoon also threatens to really stir up Sunday's race. The forecasts and preparations for the race are therefore very difficult, and it remains exciting.
