Bruno Senna: R31-04, P8, 1:27.498, 36 laps

Vitaly Petrov: R31-06, P11, 1:27.890, 37 laps

As the drivers eased into their driving duties at the Buddh International Circuit, Bruno and Vitaly were able to enjoy some considerable track time in this afternoon’s 90-minute session.

In warm, hazy conditions Lotus Renault GP took part in an interrupted second session, as both drivers managed to trial Pirelli’s hard and soft tyre compounds.

On the hard tyres, Bruno and Vitaly managed times of 1min 33.331secs and 1min 32.502secs respectively.

Moving onto the yellow-marked soft (option) tyres after 25 minutes, Vitaly managed a time of 1min 27.890secs, claiming 11th place in the process. However, it was Bruno who pipped his team mate by almost four tenths of a second, with a time of 1min 27.498secs, leaving him in P8 at the end of the session.

Brazil’s Felipe Massa topped the leaderboard, as he headed the field with a 1min 25.706 secs, eight hundredths ahead of world champion Sebastian Vettel in second.
