Lewis Hamilton set the fastest time of the second practice session in Budapest, beating Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso, Jenson Button, Mark Webber, Sebastian Vettel and Felipe Massa. The Mercedes were seventh and eight with Nico Rosberg ahead Michael Schumacher. The Force Indias were next with Paul di Resta beating Adrian Sutil and the two Saubers, Kamui Kobayashi just ahead of Sergio Perez.
Rubens Barrichello was 13th, ahead of Nick Heidfeld and Pastor Maldonado, with Jaime Alguersuari next up, ahead of Vitaly Petrov, who was struggling in the session with his Renault. At the back were the two Lotuses, Jarno Trulli ahead of Heikki Kovalainen, the two Virgins with Timo Glock ahead of Jerome d’Ambrosio and the two HRTs at the back with Daniel Ricciardo ahead of Tonio Liuzzi on this occasion.
That’s a big result for Ricciardo. Was there any reason for him to be half a second ahead of Liuzzi other than outright pace?
I very much enjoyed watching Bruno Senna in FP1. I savored the onboard footage and I dreamt of broadcasts watched long ago in younger days.
I was wondering the same thing Jim!
