McLaren ruled the roost in Abu Dhabi on Friday afternoon, as Formula One racing went into the twilight zone around 1700 hours local time. And both Ferrari's Fernando Alonso and Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel fell foul of a slippery Turn One and touched the outer wall in their efforts to keep up. Vettel and Webber set the initial pace for Red Bull before the sun began to slip from the sky, running the soft Pirellis as the McLarens clocked fast times on the mediums. Then after Alonso had a spell out front for Ferrari, McLaren's Lewis Hamilton took control with 1m 39.586s and team mate Jenson Button trimmed down to 1m 39.785s, 0.199s slower. Alonso's best was 1m 39.971s before he slid off backwards into the wall.
