Free Practice 2 - Re-Cap:
The second session has now passed and we're waiting for FP3 to start. Also later will be Qualifying to see who can go fastest to secure Pole Position for Sunday's Grand Prix.
There was a lot of people having what we and many people call "Off track moments" - Where a car will either have 2 or more wheels off the circuit, have a spin or just kinda' lose the turning for a moment. Massa was one of the few people to have a full on spin, but was able to get the car back on to the circuit and continue.
While Mercedes had another grand 1-2 finish in this session, Nico was warned of engine damage and that he would need to switch gears during certain turns. Someone else having car problems was Romain Grosjean, with the continued water leak on his Lotus. They thought they had fixed it, but when he went out for a run, they were quick to call him back, telling him the leak was still there.
Sebastian Vettel, who has yet to score a win in this season, looks to be having a promising weekend as he ended the session in 3rd, ahead of his team-mate, Ricciardo, who finished it in 7th.
