FP3 went without any problems, incidents or interruptions, with continuous work. Oscar Piastri was in the lead.
This was the first stage where we finally got a taste of the real forces at play over the weekend. There was no heavy traffic on the track for the first 15 minutes of the event, but then later on everyone started running, and the usual qualifying simulations took place as well. Based on these, McLaren seemed to be the favourite for qualifying, but Scuderia Ferrari and Red Bull cannot be underestimated... In the end, we can expect qualifying in this order: Oscar Piastri, Lando Norris, Carlos Sainz, and we are curious!
