2012 Malaysian Grand Prix FP2 Results: Hamilton stays on top

 
Lewis Hamilton kept McLaren on top during the second free practice in Malaysia; the Briton was only 1 tenths down on his fastest FP1 time.

Meanwhile in the other McLaren, Jenson Button split the Mercedes duo Michael Schumacher and Nico Rosberg to take 3rd place, just 0.002s off of Schumacher’s laptime.

Daniel Ricciardo scored an impressive 5th place for Toro Rosso, in front of Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso who took a huge leap from 16th in FP1 to 6th.

In 7th place was Red Bull driver Mark Webber ahead of Vergne’s Toro Rosso.

Romain Grosjean couldn’t improve on his FP1 time and had to settle for 9th place, while reigning world champion Sebastian Vettel completed the top 10 in a quiet session for the German.

We honestly cannot wait for tomorrow’s Qualifying session at 10:00 AM (Beirut time).
Weather forecasts say it’s gonna be a wet one!
