A thorough review of all the events and results from round four of the season
PRACTICE 1 - Friday am
After an extremely quiet start to the session on the dusty track, Lewis Hamilton underlined McLaren's improvement by topping morning practice for the second grand prix in a row.
The BMWs used super-soft tyres to go second and third, which would prove to be that team's high point of the weekend by a long way. Nico Rosberg and Jenson Button completed the top five.
