FP2: Hamilton quickest man in second practice

Friday 25th November 2011, 17:50 by Ryan Wood 

Lewis Hamilton topped the timesheets for the second practice session on Friday in Brazil, with a lap of 1:13.392, just over a tenth and a half quicker than Sebastian Vettel.

The Red Bull driver finished just ahead of his teammate, Mark Webber, who had previously topped the first session in the morning.

The RB7 looked to have the pace over the longer stints, a worrying sign of things to come for the race?

Fernando Alonso pipped Schumacher to the fourth quickest time, whilst Felipe Massa, Jenson Button, Nico Rosberg, Adrian Sutil and Paul di Resta completed the top ten.

The lower half of the grid was a case of 'two-by-two' as from ninth to 24th, teammates lined up alongside one another.
