Lewis Hamilton led the way for most of FP1 but was followed extremely closely by Sebastian Vettel, with Mark Webber and Jenson Button making up a top four covered by less than nine hundreths of a second.
One second covered the top 11 cars in the session, with the majority of the fast lapping taking place on the 2013 prototype tyres which were provided to the teams by Pirelli for the Friday Free Practice sessions.
