Free Practice 2 results - Abu Dhabi 2013 - Sebastian Vettel resumes his position at top of the timesheets

Published 1 November 2013 by Christine

Vettel continued his slightly odd behaviour into second practice, reporting a funny smell in the car before pitting. Despite that, he still managed to get the fastest time by day's end. Others were not so lucky, Paul di Resta suffered a suspension failure, Jenson Button picked up a puncture and Romain Grosjean had a brake failure. Drivers struggled to keep their cars on track leaving Vettel fastest, Webber behind, with Lewis Hamilton third.
