Lewis Hamilton leads the way in second German Grand Prix practice

It was the third time that Lewis Hamilton topped a practice session this season, but it may not mean much when qualifying takes place tomorrow. Hamilton, the defending world champion, lead the way in his McLaren-Mercedes, but some suggest the car's true form may come to light tomorrow as he was running very light on fuel.

The weather adds in another factor as today was cool and wet at the Nurburgring. Once again the Red Bull-Renaults and Brawn-Mercedes machines were near the front, with German Sebastian Vettel second in his Red Bull machine and championship points-leader Jenson Button third in his Brawn.
