Max Verstappen ruled the roost once again in FP2 for the British Grand Prix, and the Dutchman was also slightly boosted by a disastrous session for one of his nominal rivals.
That rival, on this occasion, was Charles Leclerc. It wasn't that the Ferrari didn't show pace – indeed, Carlos Sainz Jr. was on fine form – but that Leclerc's car didn't see the track at all due to an electrical issue.
The Mercedes of Lewis Hamilton and George Russell appeared to be struggling for pace themselves, their highly touted front wing upgrade taking some time to bed in.
The big surprise of the session came again from Williams, with both of their drivers flying once again. Alex Albon had set the third fastest time in FP1 and followed it up in the same position again, while Logan Sargeant logged the seventh fastest time in the session.
