Shaking in the Red Bull box. A few seconds after the start of the third session, Alexander Albon's car is still damaged after the incident at the Stowe during yesterday's free practice session. The problem is on an electrical level. Red Bull mechanics replaced the battery pack on Alexander Albon's car.
30 minutes after the end of the session, Max Verstappen enters the track affirming the power of the Red Bull car.
Lance Stroll shows that the Racing Point is capable of "annoying" the teams that are in the top positions: Mercedes, Red Bull and Ferrari.
Albon takes part in the third free practice session just 14 minutes from the end and we notice the difference in performance of the two Red Bulls.
Ferrari doubts remain, the performance of Sebastian Vettel's car which finds himself 14th, behind his teammate, Charles Leclerc, who finishes the last session in sixth position at +0.898 from Bottas.
After the free practice session, Bottas is in first position with the best time, leaving behind his teammate, Lewis Hamilton.
Good performance by McLaren who finishes in fifth and seventh position.
Alfa Romeo is disappointing in this free practice session and ranks 17th and 19th, followed by Williams who finishes with Nicholas Latifi in twentieth position while his teammate in 16th.
