Red Bull duo Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber continued their recent dominance of Formula One by being the two fastest drivers in the opening practice session for Sunday's Hungarian Grand Prix.

German Vettel was marginally quicker than Webber, but both men were a second speedier than their nearest rivals.

Renault's Robert Kubica was third fastest, with world champion Jenson Button fourth for McLaren.

Despite winning last weekend's German Grand Prix, Fernando Alonso and his Ferrari team-mate Felipe Massa, back on the track where he suffered near-fatal head injuries in an accident 12 months ago, were two seconds slower than the Red Bull cars.

Alonso was seventh fastest, behind fifth quickest Rubens Barrichello in his Williams and the BMW Sauber of Pedro de la Rosa.

Completing the top ten behind Alonso were the Mercedes duo of Nico Rosberg and Michael Schumacher and Nico Hulkenberg's Williams.

Massa was 12th, just behind Adrian Sutil's Force India, while Jarno Trulli and Heikki Kovalainen headed the new teams in their Lotuses.
