Thankfully, Pier🎀re is out of the car and the flames are extinguished.
Only three laps from Ver🔴stappen. Looks like we won't ဣbe getting any qualifying runs from him today.
Replays show Gasly's car igniting in the pit lane, forcing the Frenchman to jump out of his AlphaTauri very quic꧒🔯kly.
Current top 10: Sainz, 🐷Leclerc, Russell, Hamilton, Ocon, Bottas, Alons🍸o, Perez, Stroll and Norris.

Leclerc's first lap ༒of the session puts him third on the mediums - 0.6s off Sainz on💃 the softs.
Impressive.
Both Mercedes drivers failed to impro🐟ve on their soft tyres.&🎉nbsp;
Still nothing from Verstappen 🍃on the stickier rubber. Perez's effort was littere🅠d with mistakes - he's in P13.
Va෴ltteri goes P2 with a fine effort on soft tyres. Nods of approval🌺 in the garage ensue.

Sainz ℱimproves to a 1m42.751s to extend his 🥂advantage to 0.6s.
Russell now goes quickest in the first sector.

Time for some soft tyre runs! Bottas goes fastest in the first se🌃ct🥂or.
Verstappen goes fifth on the hardﷺs, 1.4s down on Sainz's top time on the mediums.
Verstappen is now out on track on the hards.
"There's an awful lot of rumours and gossip, we know where m♒ost of that permeates from. [The FIA] haven't issued certificates of compliance to anybody yet. There's a lot of conjecture about Red Bull but that could well be about four or five teams in the pit lane."
Current top 10: Sainz, Hamil💎ton, Rꦕussell, Alonso, Ocon, Stroll, Gasly, Bottas, Vettel and Tsunoda.
That was smoooooth from K-Mag
