Honda Racing F1 United States Grand Prix free practice report
Just five days after leaving Montreal, Formula One was back in action in Indianapolis today where the first free practice sessions were held in preparation for Sunday's race. Hot and sunny weather prevailed during the two 90-minute sessions at the end of which the Honda Racing F1 Team's Rubens Barrichello and Jenson Button held 9th and 10th positions respectively.The drivers achieved plenty of laps through the day as they tailored the set-up of the RA107 to suit the characteristics of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The set-up challenge here is all about finding the right compromise between the higher downforce essential to good grip in the infield and the lower drag required for the very long straight.RUBENS BARRICHELLO"We have completed a lot of hard work today but we were able to achieve a lot, particularly in the afternoon session.
