Charles Leclerc led a Ferrari one-two as Pierre Gasly’s difficult season continued with a big crash in second practice at the German Grand Prix.
The Dutchman was 0.684secs slower than Leclerc and Red Bull looked to be in less good shape than they were in the last two races in Austria and Silverstone, at least on the evidence of Friday.
Meanwhile, the day was encouraging for Ferrari, as not only were they quickest on a single lap, Leclerc’s race-simulation run on the soft tyre was every bit as quick as Hamilton’s.
