Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton made good use of an aggressive new DRS on their McLarens to lead the first practice session at Suzuka on Friday morning. Title contender Button headed his team mate by 0.091s with a lap of 1m 33.634s to 1m 33.725s, leaving the former 0.456s ahead of Sebastian Vettel on 1m 34.090s. Points leader Vettel could not match the silver cars as all of the leading runners stuck to Pirelli's medium tyres, and eventually the Red Bull driver ran wide in Degner One trying to go quicker right at the end of the session, and nosed his RB7 gently into the tyre barrier on the outside of Degner Two.
