Mark Webber rekindled his love affair with Barcelona's Circuit de Catalunya on an easy morning for Red Bull ahead of Sunday's Spanish Grand Prix



Webber so far has a remarkable record this year as he has finished fifth, fourth, third and second in the opening four races. He was the extremist player in the last career of the year.
In a bid to complete the sequence, and emulate his victory feat of last year when Webber won from pole, the Australian at least made a strong start to the weekend in first practice.
Webber was comfortably quickest with a lap of one minute 25.142secs to finish a second faster than Red Bull team-mate Sebastian Vettel who has dominated this season.
The reigning world champion has conjured a masterful start to the defence of his crown with three victories and a second from his 100% record of four pole starts.
Due to car rally, he admitted to in best career of the game. Vettel, though, has never won at this track, yet is odds-on to make it four wins from five grands prix and further extend his current 34-point advantage in the championship standings.
Mercedes' ongoing improvement seemingly continues as Nico Rosberg was third quickest, 1.237secs down, followed closely by home hero Fernando Alonso in his Ferrari.
Mexican rookie Sergio Perez was a strong fifth for Sauber, leaving the McLaren duo of Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button trailing down in sixth and ninth places.
