Japanese Grand Prix – Different job sheets

Kimi and Seb split the tyre programme to go 3rd and 5th fastest
Suzuka, 7 October – The Ferraris finished third and fifth fastest in the final 90 minutes of free practice on this Friday in Suzuka. The two drivers worked on different programmes in their SF16-Hs, while preparing for qualifying and the race. Kimi Raikkonen, third in 1.32.573, alternated between Medium and Soft tyres, while Sebastian, who was fifth fastest in 1.33.103, fitted the hardest tyre available here in Japan, the Hard. The only glitch was a minor electrical problem on Kimi’s car, which was quickly resolved, as the Finn completed 26 laps, eight fewer than his team-mate.
Rosberg was quickest of all in the session, doing a 1.32.250 on Soft tyres.
