FP3 HIGHLIGHTS: Watch all the action as Mercedes move to the head of the field
Mercedes may have kept their powder dry across Friday’s running at Silverstone, but the Silver Arrows unleashed the full force of their attack in Free Practice 3 for the British Grand Prix on Saturday, with Valtteri Bottas leading team mate Lewis Hamilton – the first time a Mercedes has led a session this weekend.
But while Mercedes’ pace was impressive, it was a fine session for Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, who finished just three-tenths off Bottas’ time in third – although his team mate had a less enjoyable time of it, with Alex Albon consigned to the garage for much of the session with an electrical issue, a day after his big crash in FP2.
