Red Bull were behind world champions Mercedes and Ferrari on the practice timesheets at the Spanish Grand Prix on Friday but hopeful the gap to the Italians might at least be narrowing. "But it looks like Mercedes have brought a good update package as well so they're still quite far ahead," added the 19-year-old, who was fifth fastest in both of the day's sessions. Red Bull are waiting with some frustration for an update to their Renault engine, which looks some races away still, but have also made chassis alterations. Mercedes lead the constructors' standings, a point ahead of Ferrari, after two wins by each of the teams. Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel, a four times champion with Red Bull, leads Hamilton in the drivers' standings by 13 points.
