Ferrari fastest but teams still face the unknown after chaotic Friday in Baku

BAKU, Azerbaijan -- Friday practice in Baku was a stop/start affair after one session was called off early due to a loose drain cover and another was interrupted by two red flags. From the outside, it's easy to judge as drivers slither off the circuit left, right and centre, but listening to Lewis Hamilton's description of the opening sector of the lap, it is easy to understand how so many mistakes can creep in at a circuit like Baku.

"I don't know if people watching fully understand the speeds we are going through a lot of these corners," Hamilton said after the session.
