Alonso was the fastest in the rain-affected first session, but the Spaniard finished .017 seconds behind the German as weather improved at the Circuit de Catalunya in the afternoon. Vettel clocked 1 minute, 22.808 seconds — considerably faster than the 1:25.252 Alonso managed for Ferrari in the morning run.<\/p>\n
Vettel said after the race that afternoon was fairly conclusive. \u201cWe have some new parts here but the days of big, big upgrades don\u2019t really happen now with the regulations how they are. This afternoon was fairly conclusive, but this morning wasn\u2019t really much good with the weather. It\u2019s hard to say much about the harder tyre, I think the number of pit stops will be the same here in this race as at the last few,\u201d said Vettel. <\/p>\n
Meanwhile Mark Webber, who finished third in the second practice said, \u201cIt looks reasonably tight. We couldn\u2019t have got more out of it today really, the weather made things a bit tricky, but it was a pretty good day overall. We had a few things to test this morning which we had to move to the afternoon when the weather was better \u2013 but it was okay. We still have work to do tonight. It\u2019s a nice grand prix to come to \u2013 one of the most popular of the year.\u201d<\/p>\n
