On the race simulation runs late in the session, Norris set the pace, seemingly 0.2secs or so quicker than Leclerc and Verstappen. Hamilton was also lagging behind his team-mate on heavy fuel, by about 0.2secs on average.

Williams driver Carlos Sainz, who impressed by setting second fastest time in the first session, was mixing it close to the top teams on race fuel, averaging between the pace of Leclerc and Hamilton.

Mercedes did their race runs on the hard tyres, while the other top teams used the mediums, so their averages cannot be compared. But Antonelli, who was only 16th on single-lap pace, was every bit as quick as Russell in race trim.

The session was incident-free, other than a bounce through the gravel at Turn Six for Hulkenberg.
