F1: Charles Leclerc, go ahead in the crazy third Silverstone session

The Monegasco led the final batch, before the classification. In the end, two red flags complicated all those who sought to improve time.

The third GP training session of Great Britain passed normally. Just a few droplets that some cloud released had caused a little more attention to a batch that had begun with enough lethargy. There was delay for green because the track was dirty and then the teams, except the Alpine urgent, they took easy to turn. Some pass by here, some fight on the track here … Until, in the end, everything was uncontrolled: Gabriel Bortoleto lifted his sabuer, Oliver Bearman with the tube of the destroyed haas, a debris of a car lying on the track … in the middle of all that, Charles Leclerc stayed with the best time.

First of all, Ferrari confirmed on Saturday his improvement he began to show in Austria. Already in Britain, Lewis Hamilton had led the first session. And in the third, it was the Monegasque turn. The heptacampeon could not take advantage of its first turn with the second game of new soft tires because it went in a curve. And when I was traveling straight to first place, already on the end, the red appeared.

The first interruption occurred because someone lost an endplate on the track. It was momentary. The track was quickly enabled and everyone went out to take another turn, the last one, which would probably be the best of each. But the red appeared when Bortoleto flew with his Sauber. The Brazilian was clueless at great speed in Maggotts, he got up through the air in the piano and the flight was destroyed the left front suspension. Red and end. But there was something unusual still: Bearman quickly entered the street that leads to the boxes, lost control of his haas and hit the wall … Everything with a red flag!

With that mad closure, the doubt about the yields before the classification was raised. Because Leclerc dominated with 68 thousandths of advantage over Oscar Piastri. The Australian beat his fellow Lando Norris (fourth) in the internal duel of McLaren and were one of those who could close the final lap. In the middle of the Woking boys, Max Verstappen, who was traveling to the best time and lost the chance in the last partner. Yuki Tsunoda was fifth … The Japanese urgently needs a result with the Austrian house. And Bearman, who finished the session with a rookie error, had previously shone with the sixth place.

Ferrari was firm and placed in the list of candidates to fight for pole and victory in Silverstone. Because, in addition to the potential demonstrated, he has Hamilton, the one who won the most times on the English track.
