F1 Singapore, FP2 live
Good afternoon dear readers of FormulaPassion.it and welcome back to the appointment dedicated to the live written coverage of the second free practice session of the Singapore Grand Prix.
This morning Ferrari was the fastest thanks to Charles Leclerc. The Monegasque preceded Lando Norris by 76 thousandths and Carlos Sainz by 189 thousandths. For the #16 it is the best way to start a weekend that in his intentions must redeem the disappointment of Baku.
Even in terms of race pace, FP1 offered a battle between McLaren and Ferrari, with Mercedes and especially Red Bull expected to improve this afternoon, as they have only won one of the last eight editions here.
