Liuzzi outpaces Sutil in first practice session

Montreal: Vitantonio Liuzzi made the best of his new VJM03 chassis clocking the eighth fastest time, three places ahead of Force India teammate Adrian Sutil, in first practice session ahead of Sunday`s Canadian Grand Prix.

Hispania driver Karumn Chandhok was 20th in the chart with his best lap of 1:21.9775.Jenson Button (1:18.127) topped the chart but Mercedes` Michael Schumacher (1:18.285) prevented a McLaren one-two by finishing just ahead of Lewis Hamilton (1:18.352).
