Who is in the top three?

As usual in the 2020 season, the Mercedes duo and Max Verstappen lead the timesheets. Verstappen took a while to get going this weekend, but the Dutchman proved he can challenge Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas in the second practice session. 

What happens behind the top three is still a mystery. Sergio Perez looks strong in his Racing Point car, but McLaren and Renault leave nothing to chance and will try to be on top of the Racing Points. It is particularly exciting between the three teams in the fight for third place in the championship.
