Free practice three was the calmest of them all as the drivers had little to no issues running around the track in Barcelona. The McLaren continue to look like the fastest car this weekend, once more, while the second placed team is a little more uncertain. Oscar Piastri set the quickest time while his teammate Lando Norris slotted in behind him. Charles Leclerc was third quickest, while Russell is looking to regain the momentum lost out in Monaco last weekend. Hadjar has been performing well, as the Racing Bulls driver went sixth fastest and will be hoping to do something similar in qualifying. The Williams haven’t appeared to have as much this weekend, but we’ll see how they stack up later today.
