Rain on Saturday?
During the second free practice session, every team seemed to take into account that rain would disrupt the session, but in the end the rain didn't come until after the second free practice.

The third free practice session will see many drivers pushing for the limit in preparation for qualifying later this afternoon. So it will also give a clearer picture of the ranking on the Red Bull Ring, as long as it remains dry.
