- GPblog.com
Max Verstappen was again the fastest driver on the track during the second free practice session. This time it was not his teammate, but Charles Leclerc who followed him in second place. The gap between the two was over four-tenths.
Just like during the first free practice, Alexander Albon also did well. He managed to claim second place on Friday morning, but this time he had to settle for fifth place behind both Mercedes drivers.
Istanbul Park gets faster and faster
The tarmac at Istanbul Park gave a little more grip with each lap, so the drivers who finished their fast lap last benefited the most.
Besides Ferrari, AlphaTauri also showed that it is a team that should be taken into account this weekend. Both Kvyat and Gasly managed to easily maintain themselves in the top ten and ended up in sixth and seventh place ahead of Sebastian Vettel.
