Pierre Gasly tops wet session for Red Bull in FP2 at The Hungarian Grand Prix
In the brief window of dry running that did take place on Friday afternoon before the rain came down, Gasly took the soft tyres to fastest time of 1:17.854 to pip team-mate Max Verstappen, on the slower mediums, by 0.055s.
But, tyre corrected, it was world championship leader Lewis Hamilton who truly ended Friday with the standout effort after lapping just 0.135 slower than Gasly on the hardest tyres available.
Hamilton finished third fastest, having set the outright pace in Practice One with what stood as Friday’s quickest lap.
Valtteri Bottas was fourth quickest in the second Mercedes after running to the track after an engine swap sidelined him in P1.
Toro Rosso’s Alex Albon crashed heavily at the final corner in the opening minutes of P1 after losing control of his car when he put a wheel on the grass.
