There’s a brief yellow flag as a marshal jumps over the barrier to retrieve the piece of debris shed by the VF-25.
A problem now for Bearman as well as part of the bodywork has come off the left-hand side of the Haas. The engine cover has torn off.
Leclerc sets the fastest time of today with a 1’30.861 but the SF-25 grabbed his attention at the final corner where he got a little loose on the exit kerb.
Andrea Kimi Antonelli quickly down to business in the Mercedes, producing a 1’31.189, which puts him a tenth of a second ahead of Leclerc.
Aston Martin say they will “confirm our line-up for this afternoon in due course” so it’s possible Alonso could do the whole day.
Not a smooth start to the day for Aston Martin whose mechanics are now having to push Alonso’s car back to the garage after he experienced a problem on the way out of the pits.
One change to that driver line-up has been announced. Aston Martin say Lance Stroll “wasn’t feeling 100%” overnight, so Alonso will start the day in the car.
The remaining eight teams will split the running between their two drivers as they have done for the rest of the week. We’re expecting to see Lando Norris, Charles Leclerc, Andrea Kimi Antonelli, Lance Stroll, Jack Doohan, Oliver Bearman, Isack Hadjar, Alexander Albon and Gabriel Bortoleto in action this morning.
World champion Max Verstappen is one of two drivers who will have his team’s car to himself for this final day. The other is Alexander Albon in the Williams.
This is the final official day of running for the teams before they gather in Melbourne for the first practice session of the season, two weeks from today.
Welcome to day three of testing for the 2025 F1 season on RaceFans Live. The test will begin at 10am local time (7am UK time).
