Adrian Sutil, MONZA 2009

Adrian Sutil continued Force India's excellent form by topping the second practice session at Monza.Sutil sat out the first half an hour while Force India completed an engine change, but once he hit the track the German immediately launched into a rapid series of laps that put him straight into the top five and drew him ever closer to early pace-setter Nick Heidfeld (BMW). While Sutil was still running on hard tyres, Heidfeld had set his time on softs - and it was when the Force India man switched the softer tyres 15 minutes later that he managed to knock his compatriot off the top spot.
