Turkey 2011 - Free Practice 3 results - Vettel returned to the top, with Schumacher splitting the Red Bulls
Published by Christine
It was only a matter of time before Sebastian Vettel had a working car underneath him and could regain the top spot, and it happened today. With an hour of dry running to get in before qualifying, Vettel was fastest about halfway through, and although the speedy runs towards the end mixed up the order, it was Red Bull who took top honours this morning.
