It was Perez fourth from the first Mercedes of George Russell in fifth, with teammate Lewis Hamilton seventh behind Haas’ Kevin Magnussen, who had a sound session. Visa Cash App RB’s Daniel Ricciardo was eighth from Williams’ Alexander Albon.
The Top 10 was rounded out by Aston Martin’s Fernando Alonso, with Stake F1 Team’s Valtteri Bottas 11th to make it nine different teams in the Top 11. Williams’ Logan Sargeant was 12th from McLaren’s Oscar Piastri, who suffered floor damage after wide moment.
His teammate Norris too ran wide and also had a moment at the pit entry, while Sainz too had a gravel moment. The team to miss out in the Top 111 situation was Alpine whose lead was Esteban Ocon in 14th, with his teammate Pierre Gasly in 16th.
