Alonso shows his class
Sep 26 2008
Two-time world champion Fernando Alonso produced a sparkling performance under the floodlights to top the timesheets in the second session of free practice on Friday ahead of the inaugural Singapore Grand Prix.
The Renault driver left it late to produce a scintillating lap and clock a time of one minute 45.654 seconds to edge championship leader Lewis Hamilton by 0.098secs.
McLaren's Hamilton, who came out on top in first practice earlier in the evening, had led for the majority of practice until Alonso took charge.
Ferrari's Felipe Massa finished third with a time of 1:45.793 while Heikki Kovalainen of McLaren and Williams' Nico Rosberg took fourth and fifth respectively.
