On Day 2 all the three games were very exciting and fighting. Nepomniatchi employed a very rare move (5.h4) in the Gruenfeld against Vachier-Lagrave. The experiment looked successful at first sight, but then Ian lost control over the position and Maxime managed to grind him down in an endgame with an extra pawn. A double-edged King's Indian struggle between Bacrot and Ding Liren ended in the Frenchmen's favor. Richard Rapport had a commanding advantage as White in the Rossolimo, but then he decided to give away a pawn for some reason, and Alexander Moiseenko prevailed.
