Mexican GP: Free Practice 2 - Re-Cap & Times

    Romain Grosjean missed most of the session due to an ERS issue and finished in 20th with a 1:22.105. Team-Mate, Gutierrez, finished 22nd with a 1:22.408. Not a good session for the American team.

    While Sergio Perez had finished up in 4th in the first practice session, he found his car lacking down force this time around and finished the session in 15th.
