There was also some misjudgement from
Ferrari, as Hamiltin did not make the line in time to start a final lap, sealing his fate with an early exit.
Things look to be going from bad to worse for the 40-year-old, as he will now visit the stewards after failing to slow under yellow flag conditions.
Double-waved yellow flags came out after Hamiton's Ferrari teammate
Charles Leclerc spun during the final moments of SQ2, meaning others on track were unable to improve on their times.
Hamilton will report to the stewards at 16:45 local time (19:45 UK time).
