Spain 2013 - Free Practice 2 results - Red Bull take over the top spot in a sunny second session

Published 10 May 2013 by Christine

The sun came out for the second session, and it worked in Red Bull's favour. The pair of Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber battled for the top spot throughout, with Vettel eventually ending the day P1. Fernando Alonso was still going well, which cheered up the home fans no end. There were worrying moments for Lewis Hamilton, who spun to one side of the track, and then ended up in the grass on the other side as he tried to correct it. Paul di Resta also had to stop when his rear left tyre disintegrated, losing all the central tread.
