Oscar Piastri topped the timesheets in FP3 ahead of the Formula 1 Hungarian Grand Prix, with team-mate Lando Norris completing another McLaren 1-2.
The Australian’s 1:14.916s was the quickest time of the afternoon, with Norris just three hundredths of a second off in the sister MCL39.
Ferrari occupied third and fourth places, with Charles Leclerc heading Lewis Hamilton, the Monegasque almost four tenths off Piastri’s time, with Hamilton over three tenths slower than his team-mate.
Andrea Kimi Antonelli was fifth for Mercedes, with Aston Martin continuing its impressive one-lap pace across free practice with Fernando Alonso in sixth.
The Spaniard’s team-mate Lance Stroll was seventh, with George Russell’s Mercedes in eighth, ahead of the Sauber pair of Gabriel Bortoleto and Nico Hulkenberg.
Oliver Bearman was 11th, one place ahead of Max Verstappen, who had been complaining of his Red Bull being “undriveable” on Friday.
The Dutchman’s time was 1.2 seconds slower than Piastri’s lap, which might cause concern for himself and the team ahead of qualifying.
Liam Lawson was 13th for Racing Bulls, with Carlos Sainz’s Williams 14th, and Franco Colapinto 15th in the Alpine.
Alex Albon was 16th, ahead of Esteban Ocon’s Haas, with Pierre Gasly 18th.
Yuki Tsunoda in the second Red Bull was down in 19th, with Isack Hadjar bottom in his Racing Bulls.
