The first free practice session is over in Abu Dhabi. Now it is time for all of the top drivers to show what they are capable of. After all, FP1 was mainly about letting rookies gain experience in Formula 1 cars. The likes of Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton return to the cockpit for this session, which you can follow in the liveblog below.

Based on the first free practice, there is still little to say about the true speed of the cars. The question is whether we will have a clear ranking after FP2. Indeed, the second practice session of the weekend is often used for the long runs. Conditions in the second free practice session are exactly the same as on Sunday (both start at the same time of day).
In any case, Max Verstappen is feeling good in Abu Dhabi. The Yas Marina Circuit is always considered a track that suits Mercedes well in terms of characteristics, yet it was the Dutch Red Bull Racing driver who got the victory the past three times.
