Europe 2012 - Free Practice 2 results - Red Bull head to the top of the timesheets as Friday action draws to a close

Published by Christine

Sebastian Vettel took over the top spot for the second session in Valencia, leading Nico Hülkenberg and Kamui Kobayashi. Michael Schumacher posted the fastest time part way through, but had to settle for fourth fastest overall. Pedro de la Rosa crashed his HRT into the barriers in what looked like a heavy collision, but he clamboured from the car okay and returned to the pitlane. The McLaren duo concentrated on race setup, settling for midfield times, whilst Bruno Senna returned to action after handing over his car to Bottas earlier - and he ended the day in fifth.
