Lewis Hamilton has taken command in the second free practice for the Grand Prix of Russia. The reigning world champion was by far the fastest in this session at the Sochi Autodrom. Sebastian Vettel positioned himself between both Mercedes drivers, but it came at a cost. He had to park his Ferrari on the main straight due to electrical problems. Pascal Wehrlein, Romain Grosjean, Rio Haryanto and Hamilton all spun in this practice.

How about that top 10? 1.8sec between them...might actually be a decent race this weekend.

It does look promising. Im surprised to see Force India this far back, this is a good track for their car, but I think they will be much stronger tomorrow, and McLaren will likely fall back a bit tomorrow.
