Lewis Hamilton stayed ahead in Korean GP Free Practice 2 by improving his best time from FP1 with almost a second. It seems that the Briton is the driver to beat this weekend. The Mercedes and Red Bull drivers occupied the first four places, separated by less than two tenths of a second after their runs on the super-soft tyres.

Felipe Massa was fastest for Ferrari, over four-tenths of a second slower than Vettel.
Meanwhile Kimi Raikkonen's car was repaired just on time to make it into FP2, but only to finish eight. Top ten was completed by Jenson Button and Adrian Sutil.
