Holden's Jamie Whincup has clocked the fastest lap of the day during practice in Abu Dhabi, leaving little doubt as to why he leads this year's V8 Supercars championship.
Whincup clocked a time of two minutes and 13.655 seconds in the second practice session at Yas Marina Circuit on Friday, outpacing Ford driver Tony D'Alberto by 0.154s.
At one point he was two seconds ahead of the rest of the field.
Jonathon Webb, who was quickest in the opening practice session, finished third fastest ahead of Ford's Steve Owen and Holden's Michael Patrizi.
With the V8s out on the full 5.5km Formula One track for the first time, a number of drivers found themselves running wide into the generous run-off areas during both sessions.
The new hairpin at turn seven also proved a challenge for Holden's Michael Caruso, who nudged Fabian Coulthard into a spin during practice one.
The two 30-minute practice sessions are the only chance drivers get to prepare ahead of qualifying at 10pm (EDT) on Friday.
The best three lap times for each driver will determine their grid position for the trio of 12-lap sprint races on Saturday and Sunday.
