Positive start for Honda Free practice for Sunday's Canadian Grand Prix got underway at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal today with the Honda Racing F1 Team's Rubens Barrichello and Jenson Button ending the day in 7th and 13th positions respectively. Both Honda drivers spent much of the day working to find a good long-run balance on the low downforce circuit and although good progress was made, there is still work to be done with the RA107 in advance of tomorrow's qualifying session. "The team did a great job working to improve the car over the day so I am happy with that," said Barrichello about Friday's free practice sessions. "The balance of the car is not yet where I want it to be, however looking at the degradation of the tyres and seeing how we performed this afternoon, we can be positive and work towards a better day tomorrow." Button said about today's work: "We completed all of the work that we planned for today, with both Rubens and I covering a lot of laps which gives us valuable data to work with overnight. It has been a reasonable start to the weekend and although we have some work to do to improve our long-run pace, overall it was a good day."

Honda will continue to improve - Button Honda will continue to improve its disasterous Earth Car throughout the rest of the season and close in on the leading pack according to Jenson Button. Since the team's embarassing start of the season, Honda has made small steps forward at each race since the European season began. "The good thing is that there are lots of improvements coming throughout the year and they're making a difference," Button said. "We're not putting things on the car at the moment that aren't working which was happening at the start of the season, but Magny-Cours is the race that I'm personally looking forward to. I think here, where you need a very good car under braking, you need to have confidence in the car. Before Monaco I wouldn't have enjoyed this race but now that we have a car that's a lot more driveable and better under braking, I think that we should be able to have a reasonable result here." "We really made a step forward with the car at Paul Ricard," he added. "The pace might still not be there but the consistency definitely is and the confidence given to the drivers so it's a good step forward and hopefully we can just build on that over the next few races."

Gilardino To Stay At Milan It took only twenty minutes for Alberto Gilardino to find an agreement with Milan after it was rumoured he might leave the Rossoneri. A quick meeting, just around 20 minutes, at Via Turati and all the doubts were gone. Alberto Gilardino will remain at Milan. The player himself confirmed this to Milan Channel: "We cleared some things up, it was very important. I am happy, I know this is an important club, I would like to stay here as long as possible. I knew it before and know it even better now." He received some important words of praise from team mates such as Inzaghi: "I've talked with Pippo he said very nice things to me. But I also heard from other team mates who asked me to think about it well." "In reality I didn't have any doubts: the papers changed my words a little bit, but the desire to remain at Milan was always there", he said. Case closed then, although the striker was keen to make one thing clear: "I've never offered myself to another team, least of all Inter."
