Max Verstappen has suffered some electrical issues, team principal Christian Horner has confirmed, as the Dutchman was mostly sidelined for FP3 on the early Saturday afternoon.
Verstappen only managed to log a time on the medium compound in the third practice, the hardest compound available. He quickly dove back into the pit afterwards, and didn't come out again for the rest of the session.
Christian Horner just confirmed that it's electrical issues that are bothering Verstappen's RB14. The entire floor was already removed from the car during FP3 to find out what the problem was.
The exact cause of the problem isn't known yet. Verstappen made a small braking error in turn one, but it's unlikely that that had anything to do with it. To be continued!
