| Welcome to F1-Live.com and our live coverage of the Turkish Grand Prix weekend. The second 90-minute practice session of the day begins shortly. |
| 13:52:36
| The morning session saw Ferrari and Kimi Raikkonen dominate proceedings. The Finn set a best lap of 1:27.988s, four tenths clear of Felipe Massa and some 1.2s clear of third fastest man Fernando Alonso. |
| 13:54:18
| Lewis Hamilton had limited running in the second McLaren due to mechanical problems but was still fourth fastest and within a tenth of Alonso despite half the laps. Heikki Kovalainen was fifth fastest in the leading Renault. |
| 13:56:00
| Nico Rosberg put in a fast lap late in the session to move sixth in his Williams Toyota while Ralf Schumacher showed good pace early on before two late spins left him seventh in the leading Toyota. |
| 13:58:04
| BMW Sauber got off to a sluggish start with Nick Heidfeld ninth behind Giancarlo Fisichella and Robert Kubica just 11th. David Coulthard, 13th, suffered a fire at the end of the session on his Red Bull. Apart from that, it was all pretty routine. |
| 14:00:01
| The second practice session is now underway. It is sunny and much hotter than this morning. |
| 14:00:48
| Adrian Sutil is the first man on track in his Spyker Ferrari. The team had hoped to run the new B-Spec car this weekend, but it failed the rear impact test. |
| 14:01:08
| Trulli, Liuzzi and Yamamoto now head out. |
| 14:01:36

| 14:05:12
| Fisichella sets the initial pace as Sato runs wide at turn eight. |
| 14:05:27
| Vettel is limping back to the STR pit. |
| 14:05:58
| Hamilton is on a fast lap. He had a clutch issue this morning and is looking to make up for lost time. |
| 14:06:32
| Vettel makes it back to the pit as Hamilton moves fastest from Alonso and Kovalainen.. |
| 14:07:27
| Fisichella pits as Kovalainen continues. |
| 14:07:52
| Kovalainen improves but remains third. |
| 14:08:05
| Alonso, 2nd, pits. |
| 14:08:58

| 14:09:28

| 14:10:48

| 14:11:13
| Hamilton finds a good chunk of time and is now four-tenths up on Alonso. |

| 14:13:02

| 14:23:32
| Not sure why the red is out as yet. |
| 14:24:02
| Heidfeld had just moved up to seventh position. |
| 14:24:54
| It seems there is a lose drain cover at turn ten. |
| 14:25:21
| They have all returned to the pits now. |
| 14:26:55
| So the red flags remain out as the circuit look to fix the loose drain cover. A few years ago in China Juan Pablo Montoya hit a drain cover very hard in his McLaren and it ended his race. |
| 14:30:45
| Charlie Whiting, race director, is inspecting the drain. No remedy in place yet it seems. |
| 14:32:03
| The red flag has been out for ten minutes now. |
| 14:37:00
| Still no progress in Turkey. The session remains red flagged as they look into the drain. |
| 14:43:12
| The session has now been red flagged for over 20 minutes. |
| 14:48:35
| The session is expected to re-start in 90 seconds. |
| 14:50:03
| The session is now back underway after nearly a half hour delay. |
| 14:50:20
| They are all heading back out. |
| 14:51:00
| The fastest four are all back out. No sign of Vettel or Coulthard as yet. |

| 15:11:13
| Vettel's first lap moves him ahead of the Spyker duo. |
| 15:14:18
| No major improvements at the moment. Hamilton remains in the pits. |
| 15:14:54
| Kubica is slowly working his way up the order. |
| 15:15:32
| Alonso (6th) heads out. |
| 15:16:22
| Now Hamilton joins the action. |
| 15:18:22
| Coulthard is on a better lap as he looks to improve. |
| 15:18:48
| The Red Bull driver picked up a position and is now ahead of Fisichella. |
| 15:19:24
| Hamilton runs wide at turn eight but is able to continue. |
| 15:19:39

| 15:25:41
| Davidson has gone off in the Super Aguri Honda. |
| 15:26:15
| He is in the gravel having made slight contact with the tyre wall. Damage to the front wind and that's the end of his session. |
| 15:27:20
| The yellows are out at turn three for Davidson's Super Aguri. Kovalainen runs wide. |
| 15:27:30
| All but Barrichello on track. |
| 15:28:37
| Now Barrichello heads out. No one seems to be improving though. |
| 15:29:48
| Sato moves up to 16th position in his Super Aguri. |
| 15:29:57
| The chequered flag is now out. |
| 15:30:23
| I don't think there are any improvements on the way. |
| 15:31:13
| Hamilton is fastest for McLaren ahead of Raikkonen, Schumacher, Trulli, Massa, Alonso and Rosberg. |
| 15:31:32
| Kovalainen, Wurz and Kubica round out the top ten. |
