Kimi Antonelli sets the fastest time in the second practice session of the Spanish Grand Prix.

With a time of 1:33.662 minutes, he is 0.113 seconds ahead of the second-fastest driver, Charles Leclerc. Lewis Hamilton secures third place just behind him.

Antonelli's teammate George Russell, who was clearly ahead in the first practice, finishes in fifth place. Another Brit, Arvid Lindblad, slots in between Russell and Hamilton.

Six Red Flags in One Day

The Racing Bulls driver caused the only red flag in F1 FP2 after 35 minutes when he crashed into the barriers.

However, if Formula 2 and 3 are included, Lindblad's crash already marked the sixth red flag on this Friday in Madrid.
