Valtteri Bottas carried his Free Practice 1 form over to the second practice session on Friday at the British Grand Prix, setting the fastest time once again with a 1:28.496. Lewis Hamilton was second once again in the sister Mercedes, just 0.047s away from beating his team-mate. He was the only driver to set his fastest time on the Supersoft tyre, as Bottas and every driver behind him favoured the Soft. The two Ferraris improved on their morning form, taking third and fourth with Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel respectively, and they swapped positions with the Red Bulls; Max Verstappen claimed fifth, followed by Daniel Ricciardo.
Nico Hulkenberg was also quicker in FP2 and jumped into the top ten with seventh, followed by Felipe Massa - who was eighth despite a spin at Becketts - and Fernando Alonso, who fell back only marginally to ninth. Esteban Ocon took tenth, with the Toro Rosso pair of Carlos Sainz and Daniil Kvyat in eleventh and twelfth; Sainz was another driver to survive a trip through the gravel.

Sergio Perez was thirteenth, Romain Grosjean fourteenth, and Lance Stroll fifteenth, while Stoffel Vandoorne had slipped significantly from the tenth he achieved in the morning, ending the day sixteenth. Haas' Kevin Magnussen was seventeenth, having given up his car to Antonio Giovinazzi in the earlier session, and his old Renault partner Jolyon Palmer stayed put in eighteenth. The two Saubers again propped up the field and were a long way off the pace, with Marcus Ericsson beating Pascal Wehrlein this time around.
