Spanish GP - A result with little grip

Montmelo (Barcelona), 20 May – Mark Webber’s Red Bull was quickest in the second session of free practice for the Spanish Grand Prix that has just finished at the Catalan circuit of Montmelo, confirming his fastest lap from the first session in the morning. The Australian driver’s car came out on top (1.22.470) ahead of the McLaren of Lewis Hamilton (1.22.509) and the sister car of Red Bull team-mate Sebastian Vettel (1.22.826). The 150° Italia of Fernando Alonso was fifth fastest having completed 34 laps with a best of 1.23.586, while the other Ferrari of Felipe Massa ended up eighth with 1.24.278 from 30 laps. Felipe had some balance problems and Fernando didn’t put in a clean lap on the soft tyres because of traffic on a first day that was complicated by very little grip on the track. Now the engineers will sift through all the data from the new parts that were tested today in preparation for the third and final session of free practice tomorrow at 11am.
