With debris scattered across the track, the red flags were deployed with several minutes remaining and, once running resumed, Albon successfully made it through to Q2.

Team mate Carlos Sainz missed the cut, however, after appearing to be be impeded by Isack Hadjar on his final run – an incident that will be investigated after the session.
