After topping the first two practice sessions, Charles Leclerc continued his track dominance in the third practice session. Max Verstappen and Lando Norris also improved this session.

The fastest lap continously swapped between Leclerc, Verstappen and Norris. The session was mostly free of red flags until the last two minutes when Lewis Hamilton hit the barriers. That ended the session early.

Before hitting the barriers in turn three, Hamilton was the fifth fastest. Norris's teammate, Oscar Piastri, went fourth fastest. Could McLaren struggle more this weekend? Or will they bounce back?
