SINGAPORE GP - FREE PRACTICE #2 - RE-CAP & TIMES

    Kimi Raikkonen topped the second practice session of the weekend, taking Ferrari to the top with a 1:38.699. 

    Lewis Hamilton came 2nd with a 1:38.710, ahead of the Red Bull duo of Max Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo. Valtteri Bottas completed the top 5 with a 1:39.368. 

    Sebastian Vettel experienced a minor crash that resulted in a leak for his Ferrari. It ended his session a bit early but he was still able to secure 9th with a fastest time of 1:40.633.

    After finished in 20th in FP1, Vandoorne had a slightly better session this time around, managing to get his McLaren into 16th. Fernando Alonso broke into the top 10, slotting into 8th with a 1:40.459.

    The Williams duo was at the bottom of the time-sheet with Stroll in 19th and Sirotkin in 20th. It is still unknown if Sirotkin will get to keep his seat at Williams in 2019, but it's looking more and more likely that Lance Stroll is heading to Force India, in place of Esteban Ocon.

    Charles Leclerc was able to get out for this session after his FP1 crash that left his Sauber damaged. The team was able to fix it up and send him on his way. He ended in 14th with a 1:41.062. Team-mate, Ericsson, was a couple of spaces ahead in 12th with a 1:40.812.
