Ferrari were closer to the top of the table in FP3 as they had a two-three combo behind Max Verstappen, but Sebastian Vettel is still not happy with his car.
Five-hundredths of a second, that was the difference between Vettel and a win in FP3. The German is not happy with his car, however.
"We're close, but I'm still not happy with the way the car drives," Vettel told The Checkered Flag.
"I haven't driven as many laps as I would've wanted.
"That's why we don't have the answers to all the questions and we'll need some time to get everything sorted.

"With a little bit of luck can do that so we have a good base tomorrow."
Vettel sits in second in the championship behind Lewis Hamilton, but he's beaten the Brit in FP3, which could be an encouraging sign for qualifying (and the race).
