Lando Norris led the pack in the second practice session of the Singapore Grand Prix, as George Russell made contact with the barriers towards the end.

Norris led the rankings with a time of 1 minute and 30.727 seconds, narrowly outpacing Charles Leclerc by less than a tenth of a second.

Over the past weekend in Azerbaijan, it seems the main competition is between McLaren and Ferrari.

Russell experienced a tense moment towards the end of the race when he hit the barrier at Turn 8.

Russell's Mercedes sustained minimal damage, managing to reverse away from the wall and head back to the pit lane, albeit without its front wing.

Carlos Sainz secured the third position overall in the alternate Ferrari, trailing the leading duo by 0.5 seconds with their remarkable speed.

Yuki Tsunoda maintained VCARB's strong performance into the weekend by securing the fourth-fastest time, whereas Oscar Piastri still faced difficulties in matching Norris's pace.

Piastri trailed by 0.6 seconds, securing the fifth position, slightly leading his Australian counterpart, Daniel Ricciardo.

Russell finished in seventh place, while Sergio Perez was the top performer for Red Bull.

Alex Albon and Nico Hulkenberg secured positions in the top 10 at the Singapore race.

Lewis Hamilton found himself lagging behind in his Mercedes, mirroring the situation of Max Verstappen, who also struggled as his Red Bull failed to keep up.

The individual from the Netherlands ranked 15th quickest, trailing his championship competitor by 1.2 seconds.
