  • It was dry sunny running for a change.
  • No major on-track events, Nyck de Vries had a spin in his Alpha Tauri, but was able to recover and complete the session.
  • Albon put in a P3 time in his Williams if you’re inclined to try to read the tea-leaves of free practice times to predict performance later in the weekend.
