Many are expecting the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona Circuit brings about changes in the competitive landscape . Even if no one beats the Mercedes , at least they are not too far ahead . However , after a training session at the Barcelona circuit yesterday ( 9/5 ) , it seems that hope will not be realized . Instead of threatening Mercedes, could not approach them. As if they were on another planet. The two Mercedes drivers , Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg , dominated the first practice session and second. In the first practice session , Lewis Hamilton was fastest with a record 1 minute 27.023 seconds , next in the second practice session , the British rider back into the best fastest with 1 minute 25.524 seconds .Complementing the success of Mercedes , Nico Rosberg became the second fastest with a gap 0.449 seconds. Red Bull - Renault racer Daniel Ricciardo was third fastest , but his time is very far from Hamilton is 0.985 seconds or one second ynaris .Not only fast , the more terrible because Hamilton Mercedes could save the tires very well . In fact , the tire degradation became one of the major challenges in Barcelona Circuit .Last year Fernando Alonso ( Ferrari ) won by four pit stops ." Not impossible ( two pit stops ) . Lap 14 I tried the medium tire wear and all is fine . I was also surprised by the results , " said Hamilton told Autosport . Circuit de Catalunya was known to be wasteful tires . Many sharp turns and long straights that require sufficient extra braking when entering the first corner . Mercedes is so much excellence upset Ricciardo . Various updates are done Red Bull and Renault as an engine supplier , they were not enough to make them closer to Siver Arrows . "It's certainly very disappointing us .
They ( Mercedes ) so fast , " said Ricciardo told Autosport . " Initially we hope to compete in the race for victory , but we can do at this time seems to be just chasing third place," he continued . Meanwhile Alonso only capable fourth fastest . Mercedes hopes to pursue a very small because he was 1.5 seconds adrift of Hamilton. Alonso's teammate , Kimi Raikkonen , was ranked fifth with 0.2 seconds adrift . So , thank you for reading this article .
