Webber fastest for Red Bull on day one in Korea

Updated



Championship leader Mark Webber goes into the second day of this weekend's Korean Grand Prix as the fastest man after posting the quickest time of the day in this afternoon's second practice session. The Australian posted a time of 1m37.942s in his RB6 to go almost three seconds quicker than the fastest morning time, and setting the scene for an intense fight between the title contenders tomorrow.

This morning's session saw drivers get to grips with the new track, as they all coped with the extremely low grip levels on the fresh tarmac, but the times were quickly dropping as rubber was laid on the surface. There were plenty of off-track excursions too, but with a fastest time of 1m40.887s against a target of 1m38.7s, significant improvements in laptimes were going to come in the afternoon.
