00:00as he makes his way around the next fast left-hander.

00:03This is Lando Norris starting off his current fast lap.

00:06A near unsteady under braking,

00:08a little bit like the first corner at Brazil

00:11that cost him a few places last time out.

00:14Lewis Hamilton, who was quickest in FP1,

00:16currently making his way towards the end of his latest lap.

00:21And as you can see, he's gone purple and purple

00:23through the first two sectors.

00:25Round turn 17 he goes.

00:27And he's fastest by nearly 7 tenths of a second.

00:30That's a third colder than it was in the previous session.

00:34Getting very close to the wall, but not hitting it.

00:37That's exactly how you need to take turn 5.

00:40Hitting the ground, as we watch with Charles Leclerc.

00:46Like Lando had, just a bit of rear instability

00:49as he came into turn 1,

00:51riding a board with the World Championship later.

00:53This is into turn 5.

00:55And he also has that rear instability there.

00:59Ah, just no grip.

01:03Yeah, they're all struggling with low tyre temp.

01:06We don't think that Mercedes were one of those teams

01:08that was asked to modify, was it?

01:10I think it was Ferrari...

01:13Is it Ferrari and Red Bull?

01:14No, Red Bull, I think one of the teams not affected by this

01:18was Lando Norris goes fastest.

01:20And then George Russell goes quicker than him.

01:22Riding on board with car number 20.

01:26Kevin Magnussen.

01:27Another lock-up coming his way, yep.

01:29Outside front on that occasion.

01:33Oh, nice little donut there.

01:34Very good.

01:35Yeah, big lock-up on the outside front.

01:38Right, Ted Kravitz, down to you.

01:41Ah, your skid block correspondent here, Mr. Croft.

01:44Ah, thank you.

01:45I was just before, I was just at Red Bull actually discussing this.

01:49And it was a technical directive

01:52that was going to be introduced next year.

01:55And Red Bull's position and Christian Horner's position,

01:58Christian Horner just said, look, let's bring it forward.

02:01Why are we waiting?

02:02So mindful of trying to get the brakes in the right window.

02:05There's a stop in again, locking the outside front

02:08and going out wide.

02:09But, yeah, because he's, you know,

02:12trying to get the brakes in the right window is so important.

02:15They, um, it's, yeah, interesting from Sainz and Ferrari there

02:19to put that on the steering wheel, to have it at all times.

02:23Yeah, I mean, it can only be a help.

02:24It's certainly helping Ferrari at the moment.

02:26Charles Leclerc, here he is,

02:28fastest at the moment by five one hundredths of a second.

02:32We're seeing drivers just locking up,

02:36and many of them having lock-up problems.

02:39Sergio Perez next.

02:42Yeah, that's a typical move, not just from Sergio,

02:46but from many other drivers during the course of this evening.

02:48Would you want, just to go back to the Williams thing,

02:51would you want to know how you're doing

02:53compared to your previous best,

02:55or is there something to say for,

02:57I've just got the feel that it's a really good lap,

02:58I don't need to know what I'm comparing myself against?

03:02Yeah, on paper, it's got all the attributes of a track

03:05that should suit Lewis Hampton, we'll see.

03:07But Russell, you know, Russell's really driving well

03:10as Caesar Crockett, isn't he?

03:11And two tenths up on Lewis, however good that lap was.

03:14George Russell was a couple of tenths faster.

03:16Here's Pierre Gasly.

03:19He's got a car just ahead of him

03:21that is rather getting in his way, I would believe.

03:24That's Oskar Piastri in the McLaren.

03:28Yeah.

03:29Thank you very much.

03:32Honestly, they can't open their eyes,

03:34or it's the deal with them today.

03:37Jet lag.

03:38Yeah, jet lag's tough around here.

03:41No, it certainly is. We've all got it.

03:44Seven o'clock, I was up this morning.

03:47So was I. I was in the gym. Where were you?

03:50Breakfast. I'm trying to get back to sleep again.

03:52Sergio Perez locking up

03:56at a corner that is so, so crucial

03:58to your lap time, the left-hander

04:00before the start of the strip.

04:02And there's Fernando Alonso taking to the runoff there, I think.

04:05For now, though, very good middle sector for Lando Norris

04:08as Liam Norris goes 16th fastest.

04:11And Lando Norris around the final corner,

04:13turns 17 to cross the line

04:15and just over a tenth and a half up on George Russell.

04:19They have to mind the wall on the far side there

04:23as Oscar Piastri streams through here

04:26in the McLaren.

04:29And by the time they get through

04:31the little S-Bend you can see over there,

04:35they're north of 100 miles an hour,

04:37such is the acceleration on these cars.

04:39Over 160 kilometres an hour,

04:41just literally as they disappear out of my view.

04:45So huge amounts of energy going on.

04:47Huge amounts of energy going on

04:49with the braking.

04:51Let's see the Aston coming through here,

04:52Fernando Alonso now.

04:54That was nice, actually.

04:55He picked up the throttle,

04:56but then just couldn't find enough traction with it.

04:59Goes wide.

05:00He's going to just about get out of the way of Sergio Perez.

05:04It's all happening down here.

05:06Often we've seen cars way down there in the runoff area.

05:11So, yeah, brilliant little car.

05:13We've got a red flag.

05:14Something has happened, Crofty.

05:15Yes, we have.

05:17We have. Alex Albon has come to a standstill.

05:21And there is the Williams.

05:22Now, Ted was reporting the fuel system issue that he had.

05:28And he's been sent out onto the track.

05:31And I would hazard a guess

05:34that that fuel system issue has reared its ugly head once more,

05:37because it doesn't look like he's touched the barriers in any way.

05:40But we have a red flag,

05:42because that car is going to need clearing away.

05:45Oh, here we go. Let's talk about that in a moment.

05:49So, the minute he came out,

05:51had to slow down for a fast-moving car.

05:54And then...

05:55He's staying in second gear.

05:59Is he lost? Is it a hydraulic issue?

06:01Is he not able to change gear?

06:03Yeah. Well, on that particular show,

06:06it looked like he was just driving around in second gear.

06:08Yeah.

06:09I wonder if he's got a hydraulic issue.

06:11Oh, it never rains, but it pours.

06:13Even in Vegas, where it's not going to rain.

06:16And you have to feel for the Williams team.

06:18I'm not exactly sure if that's impacted the competitors at all,

06:22but that's not a concern of ours.

06:25Yeah, because it hasn't impacted you,

06:27or you've found a solution to it?

06:29It hasn't impacted us.

06:30Well, that's sixth place,

06:33which is worth an awful lot of money.

06:35Right on board with Oskar Piastri now.

06:38He touched the wall.

06:39Oh, it just got very close to it.

06:43Yeah.

06:44On the rear, maybe?

06:45Yeah, just on the rear.

06:46He just did, and then on the dust there.

06:48Still made the apex, though, which is impressive.

06:51This is what we're saying. Hamilton, we didn't...

06:53We saw the yellow flag come up, but we didn't see this.

06:55There's a nice little half donut there

06:58to get himself back on track.

07:01So no real harm done there.

07:03Just waiting for a car to go past before he rejoined.

07:06This is Pierre Gasly.

07:08Oh, don't go too close to the wall.

07:11I can stand and watch those for hours and hours and hours.

07:13I think I might go and do that, Karun,

07:15because that's it for the track action today.

07:17Lewis Hamilton, fastest in FP1,

07:19fastest in FP2 as well.

07:2111,000ths of a second between himself and Lando Norris.

07:26George Russell, third fastest.

07:28British top three, as it was in the first practice session.

07:31Then come the two Ferraris.

07:33Gasly right up there on a track he qualified fourth last year.

07:36The two Haases in the top ten.

07:38Oskar Piastri slotting in between them in eighth.

07:40And Yuki Tsunoda for RB.

07:44Ahead of his teammates, Liam Lawson.

07:47Separated Tsunoda and Lawson by about 7 tenths of a second.

07:51Alex Albon only managed three and a little bit laps.

07:55A fuel system problem ending his run.

07:58And Sergio Perez didn't get a fast lap in on the soft compound tyres.

08:02Neither did his teammate Max Verstappen.

08:04That's why they were right down at the bottom.

08:07Hamilton, once again, on top.
