00:00Not so close to the session, and you have more support racers.

00:03You got, you know, the F2 comes there, Formula Renault comes there, Porsche Super Cup comes there.

00:08You know, you got six or seven support racers, just to try and clean them amongst them.

00:12I know it's different F1, but I think here, there's only the Ferrari challenge.

00:16It was advertising her services for the safety car driver for the weekend,

00:19because she has experience of driving along the strip, and she reckoned that 140 miles an hour wouldn't be an issue.

00:25Miles off.

00:27Yeah, Sergio not happy with the condition of the track currently.

00:31Where you're braking and turning.

00:33Oh, because again, there's just no grip.

00:35They're not able to brake and turn in the way they want.

00:37He might have gone deep in 14 there, because he took a long time to get back to throttle.

00:41And we're not used to hearing that, are we?

00:42No, exactly.

00:43It's bang, brakes, and then you're immediately back to throttle.

00:45There's no real dead space, normally.

00:48Yeah, and he ends up a couple of tenths down on his teammate, Sergio Perez.

00:52Not a fully committed lap, shall we say.

00:55Even though the track might not be in its best condition.

00:59Strange, isn't it?

01:00Jenson's looking baffled as well.

01:02It's like just a waste of a set of tyres.

01:05Yeah.

01:07I'm trying to work out the logic.

01:09Yeah.

01:10Behind why, when the track is so far away.

01:13Very odd.

01:14You know what it needs?

01:15It needs another team to come in and help clean up the track.

01:20Because no one else seems to be following you, other than Yuki Tsunoda.

01:24Yeah, we just wanted to get some clean laps in.

01:26Maybe do a little bit of a longer run.

01:28See how the tyres hold up.

01:31So, yeah.

01:32Sometimes you strategically figure out when to go out.

01:35Maximise.

01:36But we got a couple sets of soft tyres.

01:38But Oscar Piastri, I think, is about to go to the top of the timing charts.

01:43When he's negotiated the next few corners.

01:45This is Lando Norris with a 1.36.8.

01:48But behind him, his teammate going significantly faster through the first couple of sectors.

01:53And we can ride on forward with him now.

01:55This is a very Oscar Piastri sort of FP3, isn't it?

01:58And this is something that's really impressed me about Oscar.

02:02In these two seasons we've seen properly.

02:04Which is, he builds up to it.

02:06I think we're lucky with the way this surface is.

02:08Here's that moment again, behind Fernando Alonso.

02:11Oh no, this is later.

02:13Yeah, this is later on in the lap.

02:15That's an RB of Yuki Tsunoda.

02:19Just cruising round.

02:20Obviously didn't know Lewis was on a quick one.

02:22If he was, yeah.

02:26It's a shame to see that.

02:27And it's also really difficult round here.

02:29And it can be a little scary when you come up behind a car.

02:31Because all the corners are blind.

02:33So suddenly you see a car in the racing line.

02:35And when you're on the limit already, it's difficult.

02:37Max Verstappen at Turn 5.

02:39It's only getting worse.

02:40The cars aren't driving.

02:42Yeah, just a couple more laps, please, Max.

02:44Let's try to make the best of this.

02:46It's staggering how quickly these cars get up to 200 miles an hour, isn't it?

02:49Yeah.

02:50Just a bit.

02:52And the track kicks in.

02:53But here's the moment with Max.

02:55This was the third one, wasn't it?

02:57It didn't even lock up that time.

02:58Just knew it was coming.

03:00Yeah.

03:01But it's interesting.

03:03They're the only two cars on the mediums at the moment.

03:05Only Perez and Max are there.

03:08And he's now had two laps in a row where we haven't got a representative lap time.

03:13So it's clearly a struggle, isn't it?

03:16And that's why, you know, it must be horrendous for him.

03:20So, Colopinso behind Gasly, who was getting a bit compromised himself.

03:26Is that Russell?

03:27Behind George Russell.

03:30And it went onwards towards Turn 1, where he went a bit too wide.

03:34Yes, it's not... I can't drive it.

03:36I'm going to crash.

03:37My left front is completely...

03:39Please, Max.

03:41Two years.

03:42You see Leclerc bouncing off that kerb there.

03:44Faster than anyone in the first two sectors.

03:46But really clouted the kerb at 15.

03:49I don't know if that's cost him...

03:50Yeah, it's cost him time there.

03:51So it's not even a personal best.

03:53A loss of a bit of time in the final sector.

03:55Oh, Hamilton.

03:57Hustling his way out of that chicane.

03:59But this shows the confidence building.

04:01Because you wouldn't do that when the track is super dirty and low grip.

04:05This is both scary and great to watch.

04:07As Hamilton goes fastest by three tenths.

04:09He's got a right tank slapper on.

04:10And actually knocked over one of the cones that Sauber had put out for him to stay away from.

04:15But, yeah, they're liking it down at Haas.

04:17Even though this car is easier on its tyres.

04:19There he goes.

04:20Same bloke again.

04:21Two days in a row.

04:23Yeah, nice ecosystem.

04:26Valtteri or Joe?

04:28Joe.

04:29And I don't want to pick on George Russell here.

04:32If you've never ever held up anyone accidentally in your entire life before,

04:36yeah, say that on the radio.

04:38But, come on, George, you know it happens.

04:40You've been out on a hot lap.

04:42And I know you were in a Mustang.

04:44Which is a little bit more raised off the ground.

04:46But how distracting is that sphere as you blast your way past?

04:51I didn't actually see it, I have to say.

04:53It's quite a decent run.

04:54Yeah, the drag affects you.

04:55Especially through this corner here.

04:57Through this last corner on the track.

04:59Goes quickest by eight one hundredths of a second better.

05:03Much better.

05:04Much better.

05:08And that's good to hear.

05:09From a Red Bull and a Max Verstappen perspective there.

05:12But it is worth pointing out.

05:14Since that lap, Albon improved quite significantly.

05:17Carlos Sainz has improved significantly.

05:19George Russell is going to improve once again.

05:22Goes quickest by three and a half tenths.

05:25That looks like a loss of power.

05:29An issue is a red flag as well.

05:32I'm not sure about the red flag.

05:34Can they not under double wave...

05:36Could they not have just pushed that back into the gap?

05:38What's the light at the top of the car?

05:40It's not green, is it?

05:41No.

05:42So that'll be why then.

05:43But we're on board with it now.

05:46Into Turn 12.

05:47He stopped just out after it.

05:49Let's listen in.

05:50Oh, it's gone off.

05:51Yes.

05:52The dashboard, it's a full shutdown.

05:54Completely shut down.

05:56Look, the dashboard has completely gone dark there.

05:59And there, you see the red light flashing in front of him.

06:01So that'll be a warning to him straight away.

06:03This was collar pin toe.

06:05Turn 12.

06:06So what causes a loss of power?

06:08Is that a hydraulics failure?

06:10Well, it's like a full electrical power shutdown, isn't it?

06:13So it's like the power unit completely has just gone off.

06:17And the fact that red light is flashing

06:19suggests that there's some sort of a failure

06:22on the hybrid system potentially.

06:25Or the engine.

06:26You know, the whole power unit system is some sort of a failure.

06:30If they've got to change it,

06:32you know, taking off these power units now.

06:35Mercedes have been quickest in every session so far.

06:38This is Yuki Tsunoda.

06:41That is not what you want.

06:43That's his teammate.

06:45That is Liam Lawson.

06:46Yuki just about rear-ended.

06:50You were dawdling on the racing line.

06:53To be fair, Liam,

06:55what's he supposed to do

06:57when you're just sat in the middle of the track

06:59as he's coming into the braking zone?

07:01Actually, I blame the team.

07:02That's poor communication.

07:03You should never have that situation

07:05between your own two cars.

07:07I still think there's a few unanswered questions

07:09going in the qualifying.

07:10I'm a terrible gambling man, but I've had to bet

07:12I still think Charles Leclerc is my pick.

07:15I think there's potential there.

07:17Just put a dollar on every single driver.

07:19That's your foolproof method.

07:21Thanks, Karim.

07:22Maybe the top eight.

07:23Chris Russell, then.

07:24Quickest by two tenths

07:26from Oscar Piastri and Carlos Sainz.

07:28Lando Norris and Max Verstappen.

07:30Lewis Hamilton, sixth fastest.

07:32Alex Albon, he improved

07:34near the end of the session.

07:36His teammate, Franco Colopinto,

07:37also in that top ten as well.

07:39Kevin Magnus and Pierre Gasly

07:41completing the top ten.

07:42There are a few names that you'd normally expect

07:44to be in there,

07:45one of which is Charles Leclerc,

07:47another of which is Nico Hülkenberg.

07:49Fernando Alonso down in 15th.

07:51Lance Stroll, stopped by the side of the track.

07:54We'll be hoping to see him out in qualifying.

07:56His car completely shut down

07:58and lost power coming out of Turn 12.

08:00Zhou Guanyu, three and a half seconds off the pace.

08:02That is practice over and done with.

08:04We qualify next.
