Australia 2012 - Free Practice 2 results - Michael Schumacher leads the way in second practice

Published by Christine

It was still wet at Albert Park for the second session of the day, giving the drivers plenty of opportunity to get some early information about the wet tyres. There were lots of spins early on, and Michael Schumacher went off - damaging his front wing as he went. He still managed to set the fastest time of the afternoon, albeit almost two seconds slower than Button's morning P1 time. Crucially, Karthikeyan managed to set a time, and Pedro de la Rosa completed one installation lap.
