Brazil 2012 - Free Practice 2 results - McLaren remain on top for the afternoon session at Interlagos

Published 23 November 2012 by Christine

The top three remained the same as the morning session in the afternoon, with Hamilton leading Vettel then Webber. The gap was increased to two tenths of a second though. Massa struggled through a few spins, whilst the Charles Pic brought his Marussia to a halt out on track with a suspected alternator failure. HRT continued their limited programme, with just 58 laps between all four drivers all day.
