Max Verstappen didn't have the best of practice sessions today. He had to retire early because of an engine issue. The engine stopped whilst he was out on the circuit, and all information on his dashboard went missing. Verstappen reported on the radio: "The engine just suddenly turned off, no power steering nothing."
But this wasn't his only drama of the session. He ran wide at turn four and drove across the gravel. It'll be interesting to see how much damage that has coursed to the floor of the car, as Red Bull engineers race against time to fix his engine before qualifying.
