Here is what the drivers had to say following the Friday practice seesions
Mark Webber - 1st Practice P17, 2nd Practice P4
"I think that's the most we could have hoped for during today's session. You always expect to lose a session in Spa due to the changeable weather conditions and that was the case this morning. We had a pretty productive afternoon with plenty to go through. We didn't always move in the right direction, but that's not always a bad thing as we learn from it. So, that's today and now we'll put it all in focus for tomorrow - not a bad start for us."
Sebastian Vettel - 1st Practice 19, 2nd Practice P10
"We didn't have so much running time today, especially in the morning, but that was actually quite good for us. We knew we would face a difficult Friday as we don't have that much mileage available because of my engine situation, so it was a little bit lucky to have the rain this morning. In the afternoon, I felt comfortable with the car, we didn't have any problems and I'm quite happy with the performance. We need to see exactly where we are tomorrow, but I think it's been a good start to the weekend. I love this circuit, it has excellent corners and is a lot of fun."

In turn this is going to hurt Mark as they will not be able to test and learn from as many options.
Perhaps they have to accelerate any planned STR upgrades so they have the same RB5 configuration on the racetrack to benchmark from?
