Indonesian youngster Rio Haryanto went quickest in the second session of the second day of GP2’s post-season testing in Abu Dhabi.

Haryanto took over from fellow Caterham Racing tester Will Stevens at the top of the leaderboards mid-way through the session and stayed in first for the remainder of the running.

Jolyon Palmer and session one pacesetter Raffaele Marciello rounded out the top three. Fellow rookies Stoffel Vandoorne and Tio Ellinas took fourth and fifth respectively, with Daniel Abt in sixth.

Stevens wound up seventh, ahead of Johnny Cecotto, Andre Negrao and Rene Binder.
