After one hour into the session the engine in the back of Daniel Ricciardo's Renault blew up and had dropped a lot of oil on the tarmac. A red flag period was needed to clean up the oil. At that moment Bottas was still quickest and even had improved his quickest lap time with 1 second on medium tyres! Verstappen was 2nd on 0.5s, Hamilton 3rd on 0.6s and Alexander Albon 4th on 1.1s.
With 2 minutes to go Vettel was pushing for a good lap time and went to fast in turn 19 and spun his Ferrari with the back into the barrier. He didn't hit the barrier very hard but was unable to continue because his left rear wheel was to damaged. The session again was red flagged until the end.
