Sebastian Vettel seemed to have a lot more confidence on the slippery track in Turkey. But according to the German, it is not yet clear where Ferrari stands and Saturday's third free practice session will provide more clarity.

"Today was quite unusual, as the asphalt is very new, so it was very slippery," said Vettel at the end of FP2 on the Ferrari website. "Of course it did get better towards the end of the day and I guess the improvement will continue over the weekend."

"But it’s clearly too soon to have a comprehensive picture of where we are. It was mainly a question of finding a rhythm, and doing as many laps as possible to get confidence in the car as well as with the track."

Difficulty with the tyres

"In the final part of FP2 we were getting faster and faster. We have not seen the real levels out there today as most people struggled to get their tyres to work."
