Verstappen fastest in second French GP practice session

The 23-year-old Dutch driver lapped Le Castellet's Paul Ricard circuit in one minute 32.872 seconds in the afternoon, 0.008 quicker than Mercedes' Valtteri Bottas who had led the morning session with a lap of 1:33.448.

Seven times world champion Lewis Hamilton, four points behind Verstappen after six races, was third in the hour-long session and also on the softs."There's something not right with this car, man," Hamilton said over the radio. Hamilton won from pole position in 2018 and 2019, and Mercedes had led every practice session since the return until Verstappen's effort.
