Grand Prix of Malaysia F1 2011: Mark Webber is still the fastest


If in the first session of free practice, Mark Webber was world of rivals, at this second meeting head has tight unspeakable. The Australian, who again scored the best time, edged in only five thousandths to Jenson Button, who ended second. Third was Lewis Hamilton and fourth Sebastian Vettel. Between the two Red Bull just there was two-tenths of difference, which gives an idea of the predominant equality at this meeting among the fastest drivers.
The fifth seat occupied the Michael Schumacher, at a considerable distance from the previous. He ended up almost a second and two-tenths of the Cronus by Webber. Felipe Massa, sixth, marked virtually the same registry than his former teammate from team, only separated them one thousandth. Fernando Alonso had not improved its position with regard to the first session, returned to finish ninth.
The rain continued without appearing at this meeting, although the sky was threatening and very dark. As well as the first test free, the seconds were played they dry in its entirety. Yet we must remain vigilant to the weather because in these weather conditions change at any time and can surprise more than one.
This second session of free practice was virtually free of incidents. The shock took it Pastor Maldonado, who ended his Williams against protections and ended his day early. Vitantonio Liuzzi, for its part, caused a yellow flag to stop its f Hispania Cosworth engine.
