The three red flag periods came courtesy of a Kevin Magnussen spin, Zhou Guanyu beaching his Alfa Romeo in the gravel and a moment for Daniel Ricciardo stand-in Liam Lawson at the final corner.
After the final stoppage, the track allowed for drivers to switch to Intermediate Tyres and the times tumbled in the final 10 minutes of the session.
