Spanish GP: Free Practice 2 - Re-Cap & Results

Time for a quick re-cap of Free Practice 2 and then the times!

Vettel had to sit out of this session after a huge wire issue caused him to only be able to complete 4 laps during Free Practice 1. Meanwhile, Esteban Gutierrez and Valtteri Bottas returned to their cars after sitting out of FP1. 

Hamilton lead this session as well, and at the end, Jean-Eric Vergne's tyre came loose and flew off, bouncing along the track. He's been handed a 10-Place-Grid-Penalty for Qualifying because of this and the team has also been fined for the incident.

McLaren continued to keep their cars in the top 10 times and things look good for them for FP3 and Qualifying. Sauber also improving after the team shaved weight off the cars over the week. Adrian Sutil admitted earlier this weekend that he didn't eat for 2 days to lose weight, admitting he is heavier than team-mate, Gutierrez.

Now, on to the times!
