FP2 Data Drop: What We Learned

Friday practice may have made the fantasy picture more interesting than expected. McLaren showed impressive one-lap pace throughout the day, with both Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri consistently near the top of the timesheets, altering the F1 Fantasy calculations for players looking to swap constructors. Mercedes still appear to hold the advantage over longer runs, keeping Kimi Antonelli firmly in the conversation for the 2× Boost. The biggest fantasy takeaway is that Mercedes no longer look like the only premium option this weekend. McLaren have the pace to challenge for pole position, while Ferrari remain an intriguing alternative at a much lower price point heading into qualifying.

🔒 Final Deadline & Roster Targets

🔒 FINAL LOCK	7:00 AM PT, June 13 8:00 AM MT, June 13 10:00 AM ET, June 13
Verified 2× Boost	KIMI ANTONELLI—strong pace and leading fantasy points scorer
PPM Value Pick	LIAM LAWSON—his recent form has set him up for a price increase
Late-Week Avoid	LANCE STROLL—his price drops still haven’t caught up to his lack of point scoring

Fantasy Implications from the Paddock

• McLaren: Norris topped FP2, and Piastri was right behind the frontrunners all day.
• Ferrari: Their new upgrade package attracted plenty of attention, but Leclerc was the only Ferrari who was consistently near the front.
• Hamilton: He lost valuable practice time by sitting FP1 out for the rookie session and spending most of FP2 working through setup issues.
