The second day of on-track running at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix kicks off with the final practice session of the weekend.

Carlos Sainz set the pace in the third and final free practice session of the Bahrain Grand Prix weekend, with the Ferrari driver leading the way from Fernando Alonso and Max Verstappen. With the lights going green at local time, many drivers were happy to bide their time in their garages before hitting the track for the final hour of running before qualifying later on Friday. Others soon started to follow, with most also opting for the soft compound while the Red Bull duo of Verstappen and Sergio Perez were interestingly the only ones to bolt on the hard tyres. Alonso led the way after the initial laps on a 1m But it was fellow Spaniard Sainz who ended the session on top with a time of 1m

Formula 1's final practice session at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix featured a frantic five-minute qualifying simulation after a hefty Zhou Guanyu crash shortened the running. FP3 is Bearman's only track time with the Ferrari SF before he tackles his first F1 qualifying session later today. His own session was largely drama-free and while he did lose some running because of Zhou's red flag-inducing shunt, he managed to get one qualifying simulation in at the end of FP3, setting the 10th-fastest time with that. A red-flagged FP3 would have been the worst-case scenario for Bearman and Ferrari before the session. Fortunately, either side of the interruption, he managed to complete the bulk of the programme designed to give him a quick-fire introduction to the SF ahead of his first ever F1 qualifying session and his grand prix debut on Saturday. Bearman started FP3 with three push laps on the medium tyres, a run that started understandably cautiously but rapidly improved.

Verstappen looked hooked up around the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez on Friday, and while it was George Russell who was quickest after the first runs on soft tyres, three-time world champion Verstappen moved back on top when the teams took out the fuel and went for a proper qualifying simulation. He clocked a 1m Albon, though, was the star as he repeated the supreme pace he showed in FP1 with another corker of a lap to add evidence to the theory that Williams could be a real shock package this weekend. Home favourite Perez was very much in the mix in third, 0. Russell was the leading Mercedes in fourth, the Briton telling his team on the radio that he was surprised by the lack of improvement when bolting on fresh softs and taking the fuel out of a car that looks reasonably competitive. Oscar Piastri was just over half a second off the pace in fifth for McLaren, with Valtteri Bottas continuing his fine form this weekend with sixth for Alfa Romeo. Yuki Tsunoda has a long weekend ahead of him, having taking a suite of new engine and gearbox parts that will confine him to the back of the grid. As a result, he spent much of the session focusing on long runs — but when he bolted on the softs for a qualifying sim with a couple of minutes to go, he popped into seventh.
