After a competitive Friday where Norris and Charles Leclerc battled for the top spot, FP3 began with uncertainty over whether anyone could challenge their pace.

With qualifying set to follow, the stage is set for an exciting showdown. While Norris leads, all eyes will be on Russell and Piastri to see if they can challenge his remarkable pace in the upcoming F1 Singapore Qualifying. Can Norris maintain his momentum and secure a prime starting position? The anticipation builds!
