Daniel Ricciardo topped the times in the opening free practice session ahead of the British꧟ Grand Prix, with poor weather conditions meaning just eleven drivers posted times during🌱 the 90 minute session.

With the rain not expected to continue into the race weekend, teams e✃lected not to head out on circuit to risk any potential incidents with only limited value from any time spent o♓n track.

As such, most of the session was spen🐟t with cars in the garage as drivers elected to head out for sighter laps before returning to the pits without posting a time.

It was only in the final quarter of an hour that any times were set, w🅠ith Ricciardo the first man to elect to stay on circuit to complete a 'fast' lap; albeit only stopping the clocks in a time of over two minutes.

The Toro Rosso man would ultimately lower his benchmark time on his final run to 1min 54.249secs ๊to outpace the Sauber of Nico Hulkenberg, with Pastor Maldonado in third𒅌 for Williams.

Ricciardo was the only driver to get into doublꦐe figures in the ses༒sion, completing ten laps.

The challenging conditions saw a number of drivers suffer scares on track as th꧑ey hit standing💃 water, although Charles Pic was the only one to suffer any damage when he went off into the barriers on the exit of the final corner.

Lotus driver Kimi Raikkonen was the onꦬly person not to go out on track at𝕴 all, spending the entire session watching on from the pits.

Team-mate Romain Grosjea💮n, Jenson Button, Mark Webber and Sergio Perez all completed just a single lap.
