Sebastian Vettel led the way during the second day of preseason testing in Jerez. The Ferrari driver was ahead of Sauber a team who also use Ferrari to power the car.<\/p>\n
The Lotus made it first run on track after being built overnight by the team and completed 41 laps before a drivetrain issue brought out the red flag. Meanwhile Vettel continued to show the Ferrari had pace going 1.6 seconds faster than he did on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Felipe Nasr matched the time that his team-mate Marcus Ericson on Sunday. Nasr day however was mainly focused on reliability running for 80 laps before calling it a day coming within 0.8 of the Ferrari. While world champion Lewis Hamilton completed more reliability runs before a water leak late in the afternoon brought his day to an end.<\/p>\n
Jenson Button had his first go in the Honda but he spent most of the day in the garage\u00a0 before re-emerging on the damp track in the last 20 minutes. While Daniil Kyvat provided the drama when he lost his front wing so completed a \u00a0series of in and out laps with no wing on the car which at least allowed the team to run some systems checks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
