Hamilton top in McLaren one-two

Eurosport - Sat, 25 Jul 12:44:00 2009

Lewis Hamilton led a McLaren one-two with Heikki Kovalainen in second practice for the Hungarian Grand Prix near Budapest.

2009 Monaco GP McLaren Hamilton - 0

Standings leader Jenson Button of Brawn GP was down in 13th while title rivals Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel of Red Bull finished fourth and sixth.

Britain's reigning world champion Hamilton set the benchmark of a minute, 22.079 seconds as time ran out in the hour-and-a-half-long session, usurping Kovalainen.

The Finn's best of 1:22.126 had led the way for the final hour and four minutes.

Nico Rosberg completed a satisfying day's work in the Williams with third spot following his second in the morning, 0.15s quicker than Australian Webber.

The German's Japanese team-mate Kazuki Nakajima separated the Red Bull drivers while Rubens Barrichello's seventh spot was almost 0.2s faster than Brawn colleague Button.

Jarno Trulli improved to eighth after an electrical problem ruled him out for most of the second half of the session, while team-mate Timo Glock in 10th sandwiched BMW Sauber's Nick Heidfeld between the Toyotas.

After taking seventh and eighth in the morning, Ferrari's best showing after lunch was the 11th of 2007 world champion Kimi Raikkonen, his team-mate Felipe Massa ending the session down in 18th.

Double world champion Fernando Alonso was 12th in the Renault while Nelson Piquet Jr in the sister R29 came 15th as he battles for his future at the Enstone marque.

With an unhappy Robert Kubica 14th in the second BMW, Force India duo Adrian Sutil and Giancarlo Fisichella filled 16th and 17th spots.

Toro Rosso pair Sebastien Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari - making his debut this weekend - occupied the final two places, the 19-year-old Spaniard seven-tenths off his colleague's pace.

  1. Hello Ellie, pitcrew66 is another multi-ID and the sick­ personality behind this is an American citizen named­ Nick Rees. This is a list of other names I have been­ able to link to Nick Rees:
    aaronvincent,­ ace.firstserve, cclauchrie, fototedlondona4,­ helpmequicknowyes, i.hatesalsa, iigor_k, llorretta22,­ Lucie D, pam_wallis60, pitcrew66, quentinalora,­ salsa747, simioni44, ssussannah, startoratora, sunita,­ thomsons34, tiptoptoe77, tttobyjug, zzoeland.

    I am­ sure some of these are familiar and can easily be­ linked by their English which always seems to have been­ written by a young female. Note that Nick Rees likes­ to post as a woman quite a lot to.

    Google searches on­ some of these IDs bring up some interesting results:-­ Porn sites, feminist sites - very wierd is our­ Nick.

    He has an eBay shop where he sells strange­ perfumes and wacky medicines which I expect wont­ work.

    The post of his you refer to is typical of this­ sicko, hope you did a report abuse Ellie.

  3. pitcrew66, certainly to date I am the only one to have­ declared myself to be a driver of a fabulous TDX. I­ would say that I am not confined to it nor am I­ confined to the home, I would say with a certainty that­ I certainly work more than you do, earn more than you­ do, and go to far more places than you do. Things is I­ happen to be a woman and therefore able to multi task .­ I also choose to write on here as a method of taking a­ break. Given I sometimes work 15 hours a day the­ occassional spot of relief particuarly when responding­ to those lesser beings is quite enjoyable. I rarely­ respond to you, but this piece of ignorant horse manure­ just deserved a mention. Oh and you can these days get­ computer links away from the home, which I am sure that­ you did not know but now you can add that to your­ education.

    As to the posts of Mungo, it is of note­ that when he posted two nights ago there also appeared­ a couple of other posters that one would suspect to be­ his ID (although sixonesix id in this case may have­ some meaning :-) )

    last night we had a Bates Master­ turn up and I seem to recall a few days ago a similar­ Id being used in the full blast of the multi posting­ also the tattie chap made a reappearance.

  4. Jeanette Bolan have you ever thought about hitching up­ with a sheep farmer? You look to be a pretty good­ milker so we could have lots of kids.

  5. tatiehoggie: What is the obsession you seem to have­ with my personal appendages? That is a very bizarre­ thing to suddenly be focused on. I'll have to­ decline your interests though as I'm afraid I am­ not that way inclined. If you are after that sort of­ thing, then may I suggest finding a more appropriate­ site.

  6. mungo: The I before E except after C rule? I'll­ tell you about that rule - it doesn't exist you­ muppet. Its a cheap school teacher trick designed to­ educate children on a very select group of words that­ obey this "rule", but there are so many words­ that don't obey the rule that they canot be just­ looked at as exceptions.

  7. CARYS: It takes a week because I have this bad habit of­ using words of more than one syllable which selective­ simple folks seem to struggle to get to grips with. ­ Damn me and my language skills.

  8. sixonesix. this person is brill !!!! why tell someone­ what you think in a day when you can take a week.

  12. 616 had a fun time last night.

    It's as plain as­ day that mungo is a faked ID because of how his posts­ change. The longer posts have had a lot of time spent­ on them so he works on his bad spelling and grammar,­ but as 616 says he misspells simple words and correctly­ spells longer, more difficult words. What a slip­ dear.

    But it is his shorter posts, with have had less­ preparation time, that truly give the game away,­ it's as if they are from another person and reveal­ that someone quite nasty is behind mungo. Possibly­ this Owens chappie.

    Whoever it is then it is someone­ who is spending a lot of time trying to sabotage this­ board. Who knows what other IDs he is running past us.

  15. I would have thought Button had the least to make up -­ as he is leading the WDC.

    From Arnold B. Kretzmeyer, on Sat 25 Jul 3:31PM
  16. Why so much discussion about grammar and racism? Keep­ the comments on the subject please.
    Hamilton has­ written off the world championship for th is year so I­ am sure he is now concentrating on getting his car in­ better shape for next season. This race is wide open­ and I am sure that you will see a completely different­ race order than the latest practice session. Button has­ the most to make up but I still see him starting in the­ first 6 slots for the race.
