The second free practice had a familar result on the Yas Marina circuit in Abu Dhabi. Mercedes have been dominant here for years. Red Bull Racing had to follow at an appropriate distance.

Red Bull Racing in third and fourth place

Verstappen was seven tenths slower than Valtteri Bottas. Alexander Albon was close to his Dutch teammate.

Behind the two top teams, Sergio Perez seems to be the fastest driver, but because he starts at the back anyway, he did not complete a fast lap on the soft tyre. Lando Norris was therefore able to take over the lead in midfield.
