Verstappen left the pit lane late in the session, but on the soft tyre he set a time of 1m 29.617s to lead Perez, in second, by 0.483s, and Alonso by 0.698s, with the Spaniard’s team mate, Lance Stroll, rounding out the top four.

They were followed by the Mercedes duo of George Russell and Lewis Hamilton, in fifth and sixth respectively, ahead of Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz, in seventh, with his team mate Charles Leclerc down in P11.
There were no major incidents in the session, although we did see a number of drivers run wide, especially at Turn 22, as they look to get to grips with the revised layout at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit.
