Adaptation appears to be quick and successful for Lewis Hamilton so far within the Scuderia Ferrari team. Indeed, the seven-time world champion dominated this second morning of testing at the wheel of his red car, recording a time of 1:29.379.<\/p>\n

The Briton is ahead of his compatriot and former Mercedes teammate, George Russell, by nearly 0.4 seconds. The top 3 is completed by former Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz, who positioned his Williams 0.7 seconds behind Hamilton.<\/p>\n

On the French side, Pierre Gasly concluded this morning’s testing in 4th place at the wheel of his Alpine. The Norman is ahead of the Spanish double world champion Fernando Alonso.<\/p>\n

This session was marked by two important events. The rain indeed disrupted this morning’s practice for a good hour, depriving teams of crucial track time. The second notable event was the contact between Oscar Piastri and Nico H\u00fclkenberg.<\/p>\n

A misunderstanding between the two drivers led to contact between the two cars at turn 8, without major consequences for either driver.<\/p>\n

The morning session was also very short for Red Bull. Liam Lawson’s car was affected by a mechanical problem, forcing the New Zealander to spend a long time in the garage. Esteban Ocon, meanwhile, continued his groundwork on long runs, completing a large number of laps once again.<\/p>\n

The practice session will resume at 1:00 PM, still live on Motors Inside<\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\n
