Pedro De La Rosa led the way in the first practice session at Imola. The McLaren driver was a tenth faster that Ricardo Zonta's Toyota and seven-tenth clear of Jenson Button in the BAR-Honda. Button's time came after only six laps, an indication that the car is very good. Michael Schumacher was also in the hunt but took 14 laps to get to a 1m22.085s.
