The second free practice of the F1 Eiffel Grand Prix was also canceled. The conditions at the Nurburgring again did not allow the medical helicopter to take off, so the two training sessions were terminated. After two consecutive delays to the start of the session, the flight control canceled the second training session.
The air temperature was 10 degrees and on runway 13. The runway was again wet and visibility did not allow the medical helicopter to take off and the start of the second training session will be postponed for at least half an hour.
