Second practice: Button fastest in the dry

McLaren and Mercedes come out on top, whilst Sebastian Vettel has to sit out second practice for the Turkish Grand Prix.

After a rainy morning in Istanbul, the second afternoon session remained dry and the teams could finally use the upgrades, which they had prepared for Europe. However, Sebastian Vettel was sidelined after his car was damaged in a major smash during first practice, and his mechanics were unable to get it repaired in time.
