Nick Heidfeld led the way for Lotus Renault GP in at a mixed weather conditions wet Silverstone for the first practice session of the British Grand Prix.
Using chassis R31-04, Nick set the sixteenth fastest time of the session using Pirelli's blue marked intermediate tyres with a lap of 1min 48.941secs.
Vitaly was just below Nick on the timing monitors with the seventeenth fastest time in the session, also using the intermediate tyres, using chassis R31-05.
The rear wings on both cars were changed during the course of the 90 minute session – Vitaly's after his installation lap, and Nick's in the latter part of practice.
Fastest today was Red Bull Racing's Mark Webber with a time of 1m 46.603s.
The wet conditions meant there was a variety of tyres used, with both LRGP drivers starting on the full wet before using the intermediate for the majority of the session. There were dry tyres used elsewhere in the field.
