F1 Spanish GP: Antonelli leads tricky second practice as Lindblad crashes

  • On Friday, Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli topped the second practice session at the Spanish Grand Prix in Madrid, setting the fastest time of 1:33.662 at the new Madring circuit.
  • The return of the Spanish Grand Prix to Madrid after 45 years utilizes the 5.4km Madring track, a hybrid of street portions and a purpose-built loop that combines high-speed sections with heavy-braking areas.
  • Racing Bulls rookie Arvid Lindblad caused the first red flag after losing control at Turn 13, with recovery of the vehicle and barrier repairs taking almost 15 minutes to complete.
  • Ferrari drivers Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton finished second and third, respectively, both trailing Antonelli by roughly a tenth of a second as the team demonstrated competitive pace.
  • Reigning world champion Lando Norris endured a troubled session, missing most of the track time after a gearbox failure forced McLaren to perform a complete replacement on his car.
