The second practice session has just finished in preparation for Sunday’s Malaysian Grand Prix at the Sepang circuit, round two of the F1 world championship. Mark Webber’s Red Bull set the fastest time (1.36.876) ahead of the two McLarens of Jenson Button (1.36.881) and Lewis Hamilton (1.37.010). Felipe Massa was sixth fastest with 1.38.089, while the other 150° Italia of Fernando Alonso ended up ninth with a lap of 1.38.583.

Apart from significant tyre degradation due to the demands of the track, traffic prevented the Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro drivers from getting the most out of the soft tyres on their first lap. Massa finished the session with the same set while Alonso put on hard tyres. Both drivers did some practice starts before coming back to the pits.

The third and final free practice session takes place tomorrow at 1300 local time.
