The FIA made the determination that Free Practice 2 will start 30 minutes earlier - at 4:30 p.m. The result was a frustrating 50-minute red flag. That is a big safety issue as the CCTV enables race control to monitor the whole track, even where marshals can't be, to deploy local or full-course yellow flags. Multiple issues wipe out FP1Īfter Pierre Gasly brought out a red flag when he stopped near Turn 8 on an install lap with a gearbox issue, it was discovered that the closed circuit television system was not synched properly. Then, the rain came pouring down with 10 minutes to go but some adventurous souls - both Aston Martins and Carlos Sainz among them - bolted on intermediate tires to get a jump on what promises to be a wet qualifying session tomorrow. With about 30 minutes remaining in the session, George Russell posted the quickest lap of 1:13.745 before his Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton immediately bested him with a 1:13.718. Alpine continued to have problems as Esteban Ocon was ordered to stop his car early in the session with a suspected water pressure issue - different from the transmission problem his teammate Pierre Gasly suffered on his install lap in FP1. Mercedes tops wet-dry FP2Īfter Free Practice 1 was mostly wiped out due to a CCTV failure, there was plenty of action in an extended FP2. ![]() Leclerc's teammate Carlos Sainz briefly brought out the red flag with a spin and contact with the barriers in Turn 1 midway through the session. Ferrari's Charles Leclerc was second-fastest, two tenths off the Dutchman and Aston Martin's Fernando Alonso was third, more than a second behind. By the end of the session it was Max Verstappen topping the time sheets with a 1:23.106 on the intermediate tire. Nyck De Vries (21), AlphaTauri-Honda RBPTįree Practice 3 started wet and got wetter. Canadian Grand Prix starting gridįernando Alonso (14), Aston Martin-Mercedes Alpha Tauri's Yuki Tsunoda was demoted from P16 to P19 on the grid after it was determined he impeded Hülkenberg. Hometown hero Lance Stroll lost his P13 starting spot for impeding Alpine's Esteban Ocon and will now begin the Grand Prix from P16. Ferrari's Carlos Sainz, who had originally qualified P8 will start P11 after stewards determined he impeded Alpine's Pierre Gasly in Q1, ruining the Frenchman's final flying lap. After clocking the second-fastest time in Q3 on Saturday, stewards deemed that he had not slowed sufficiently under a red flag and was given a three-place grid drop. Nico Hülkenberg's second career front-row qualifying effort was short-lived. Hülkenberg, Sainz, Stroll and Tsunoda get grid drops That brought out the virtual safety car for two laps as marshals cleared the track of Sargeant's car. On the seventh lap of the grand prix, Williams' Logan Sargeant stopped on track at Turn 6 and was instructed by the team to shut the car off. Russell resumed the race in P19 after pitting for tires and a new front wing. Just a lap before, some of the leaders, including Russell's Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton were complaining about tire wear and took advantage of the safety car by pitting for the hard tire. George Russell smacked the wall with his right rear tire and then caught it with his front wing as well exiting Turn 9 while running in fourth place on lap 12, brining out a full safety car.
