**Toyota’s Jarno Trulli clocked the fastest lap time in a rain-affected first practice for the Belgian Grand Prix at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit.**Trulli led the way for most of the session after doing a lap of one minute 49.675 seconds before the rain arrived.

Nobody got close to Trulli’s time as the rest of the session was run under sullen grey skies and soggy conditions at the undulating high-speed circuit.

Brawn’s Jenson Button was second with Fernando Alonso third for Renault.
