McLaren are off the pace from Red Bull and Ferrari. They probably would be going for the points rather than the win this race.
Schumacher thinks they are off the pace and doesn't expect much yet. Mercedes have a revised aero package which isn't yet suiting this circuit.
Qualifying tomorrow might be under wet conditions. The forecast is for heavy showers post lunch so we can expect an interesting session tomorrow.
Heikki Kovalainen's car suffered from a hydraulics failure and he couldn't take part for the entire afternoon session.
Interestingly Vitaly Petrov posted a much faster time than Robert Kubica in the afternoon practice, but the times were set under slightly different track conditions as explained later by Eric Boullier in the friday press conference.
HRT team principal was asked if Christian Klien might get a race later in the season. He said there is a possiblity. It seems that HRT have employed a driver rotation policy between their four drivers.
For Kubica and Kovalainen this race is more of a home race. A lot of Finnish and Polish fans are expected for the race since this race is the closest to their homes.
