McLaren is once again the most dominant team on the grid. Lando Norris has been in the top three for all three practice sessions, while Oscar Piastri topped both the second and third sessions in first place.

Max Verstappen has been another dominant force in his attempt to keep up with the McLarens. Pierre Gasly even said during the session that he could not believe how quick the McLarens were.

Yuki Tsunoda was not able to keep up with his teammate. He placed 20th while Verstappen was up in eighth. The same could be said for Ferrari as Charles Leclerc landed in third with Lewis Hamilton down in 10th.

There was only one yellow flag during this session as Nico Hulkenberg has to go off track as his car was no longer working. After being unable to restart the car, the session received a VSC until the car was able to be moved.
