FIRST FREE PRACTICE
Kamui Kobayashi emerged quickest for Sauber in a wet first practice session for the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps.
Consistently heavy rain over the Ardennes circuit left the track saturated, resulting in a morning of little action.

SECOND FREE PRACTICE
Second practice for the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa was a near-total washout, with not a single competitive laptime set.
With track conditions even worse than the morning session but a more promising forecast for the rest of the weekend, few saw any point in risking damage by running on the saturated track on Friday afternoon.
