FIRST FREE PRACTICE
What we can say about this free practice?!? Simply nothing, lot of rain in Istanbul, no times worth to compare. Some drivers played safe some took some risks like Sebastian Vettel, and manage to damage his car in turn 8. Coming into the final section of the corner the rear of Vettel's Red Bull twitched slightly and it was enough to force him onto the artificial grass on the outside of the track, which in turn spun him back across the circuit and into the Armco barrier. The right-hand side of the car was demolished along with the front wing and the accident brought out the red flags, stopping the session. Vettel was completely uninjured but the car will require Red Bull's full attention to get it track-worthy for the afternoon session.

Jenson Button set the fastest lap of a dry second practice session for the Turkish Grand Prix, narrowly faster then Nico Rosberg. Mercedes engines dominated the top times at Istanbul Park. Lewis Hamilton was 3-rd and Michael Schumacher 4-th fastest. Championship leader Sebastian Vettel did not run at all after his morning crash, and Mark Webber was fifth for Red Bull.
Felipe Massa set the sixth fastest time 0.8s off Button's pace. It was a less smooth session for Massa's team-mate Fernando Alonso who had a hydraulics problem early in the session. Once he got out on track again he soon spun applying KERS on the exit of turn five, and then returning to the pit lane he stopped at the pit lane entrance and had to be pushed back to the garage. Spanish was 11-th fastest driver in FP2
Renault's Vitaly Petrov, another man who topped the timing screens fleetingly in the early running, was seventh, while the Force Indias of Paul di Resta and Adrian Sutil sandwiched Sergio Perez's Sauber in the final three top 10 positions.
