- A Storm Brewing in Malaysia?

Well it was just last week that most of us witness history as Brawn GP took their first ever win on their debut, and now have to do it all over again in Sepang, Malaysia. The weather forecast for the weekend will probably be overcast with almost a big percentage of rain during the evening. But as we all know in F1, anything can happen in F1 and it usually does.
Williams topped the time sheet in the first practice session with Nico Rosberg being on top followed by Kazuki Nakajima in 2nd. It was however a different story in the second practice session as it was Ferrari who took the spoils and made it a 1-2 at the end of the session, with Kimi Räikkönen setting the fastest time of the day (a 1:35.707, almost 0.5 seconds faster than Nico Rosberg) with Massa came close in 2nd being under 0.1 seconds off. Well as for the others, both Brawn GP and Red Bull have been consistent in both practice sessions with being in the top 10, while teams like McLaren and BMW looking like they are struggling to keep up with Ferrari. But it is still early days and tomorrow and Sunday might yield some results for them. However McLaren has got to be in the center of attention after they were disqualified from the Australian GP for "misleading information". Also earlier today Lewis Hamilton was also give a fine for speeding in the pit lane, so McLaren really need to overcome their bad start to the weekend with some solid results.....
As always, here are the results:
first practice session
second practice session
