- Free Practice 2: P13, 1:05.620, 37 laps

• Carlos used the three tyre compounds available for this weekend and he even completed 24 laps on the prototype tyres, which are built following the tyre construction that Pirelli is set to introduce in Silverstone.
• Just as his rivals, the Spanish Ferrari driver had under his belt the experience of the Styrian GP, in which he already worked on his set-up and gathered experience on the C3 and C4 compounds. Today he covered 17 laps on the C5, the softest one of the range, which was not available last week.
• The weather was more unstable than last weekend, especially during Free Practice 2, when it drizzled for a while. This circumstance and the fact that there were gusts of wind changed the feeling of the car compared to the Styrian GP.

QUOTES:
"An interesting day at the office. Today we went on track with a very similar car to last week’s, but it felt completely different due to the wind and the change in track conditions".

"We have been trying different things, and we were not focusing on the timesheet. Our main goal was refining our run plan, playing with the set up and trying to understand both the new Soft compound and the new tyres Pirelli will introduce at Silverstone".
