Felipe Massa has been the fastest in the second practice session of the Chinese Grand Prix, followed by Alonso and Raikkonen. Unlike the first session, the drivers have been active from the start, trying first with short runs, with hard tyres, later with soft, long runs, and finally in the degradation of Pirelli has been high.
Looks like things are equalized between Ferrari, Lotus, Mercedes and Red Bull, as they have done their best times at different times, therefore the track conditions were not exactly the same.
Finally, in the last half hour we have seen how all the teams have suffered equally with the tires, especially with the soft, which degrade rapidly. We have reached to see even a prick in one of Jenson Button’s tyres, and numerous off-track all day.
