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

Free Practice 2 - Results

Weather stayed dry for the second session of Practice at Spa-Francorchamps, but that didn't mean that there were not going to be any accidents.

Pastor Maldonado spun off and ended up with the Lotus going into the wall at Pouhon. He was alright, but that ended his session way early. 

Sebastian Vettel did not compete in the second session after a turbo/exhaust issue ended his run 5 minutes early in FP1. The team has decided to use the engine from Hungary to escape a 6th engine penalty. However, they can't avoid it for long.

Max Chilton, who has returned and will now indeed be racing this weekend, was also experiencing turbo issues.

Esteban Gutierrez found himself unlucky in the session when the Sauber spun out about halfway through the session, with a gearbox problem. We're not sure if the team is changing the gearbox or not, but as always, we'll be covering FP3 on our twitter @F1Insider78 - So make sure to follow us for updates prior to the session.
