The air temperature has dropped around 5C to 31C as the sun starts to set at the track. The track surface has cooled by around 10C to 36C, so conditions in this session should be far more representative of tomorrow’s qualifying session and Sunday’s 57-lap grand prix.
Yuki Tsunoda had a rap on the knuckles for overtaking Alexander Albon in the pit lane during the first practice session. He’s been given his first reprimand of the season. No word yet on any penalty for Albon for impeding Luke Browning, who drove Sainz’s car during the first practice session.
For Max Verstappen, George Russell, Fernando Alonso, Carlos Sainz Jnr, Charles Leclerc and Oliver Bearman, this will be their first running of the weekend, as rookie drivers took over their cars for the first session.
