F1 championship leader Lando Norris dominated the second hour of practice at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, finishing ahead of team-mate Oscar Piastri and reigning champion Max Verstappen in FP2.
Norris is looking strong and confident as he aims for his first F1 title on Sunday, while Verstappen struggled with bouncing issues in the RB21 and ended up in second place behind Norris.
Piastri faced difficulties with his setup, leading to a lockup at Turn 6 and a disappointing P11 finish in the practice session.
Even though Mercedes’ George Russell and surprises like Ollie Bearman and Nico Hulkenberg made their mark, it was Norris who stole the show.
Max Verstappen is the current reigning F1 world champion, having clinched his fourth drivers’ championship last year. The practice sessions for today have ended, with FP3 scheduled for Saturday morning before the important qualifying session later that day.
