It sounds like the call was made relatively recently, and FP3 starts in about 2 hours, so maybe they were restricted to whoever was already there and has a Superlicense.

Or it could be that they were convinced by his performance in qualifying yesterday.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Wishing quick recovery for Sainz. Not the first (and not the last) F1 driver to miss a race due to appendicitis.
Looking forward to see what Bearman can do.

Indeed

Imagine being 18 and making your F1 debut with Ferrari. Bloody kids.........

Zhou with a pretty heavy hit

I think that car won't be ready for the quali

Yeah, he's certainly out of quali. That's a weird one, the back end just went.

Probably wind related, it seems to always be windy here.

Green again. I was afraid that Tec-pro damage would mean end of the session, but no.

Really unfortunate for Sainz, but what an opportunity for Bearman. Hopefully he can stay out of trouble and pick up a few points. I think he has a lot of speed but can be erratic.

was watching the end of FP3 and saw Bearman there and thought he was just being allocated but no, first british to drive for the Scuderia in 25 years

Best new track in years. Brings back that high-stakes, high-speed, razor's edge feeling that has deserted GP tracks since ~20 years (at least on camera, due to runoffs and wide roads)

I still vividly remember Verstappen's final qualy lap in 2021

How is piastri still driving after that hit??

the final turn could easily turn into the new wall of champions if cars raced qualifying stints in the race

Zhou made it on track

Sargeant, Sauber and Alpine out

I was about to correct you and point out that Irvine drove for them between Mansell and now, but then I counted the years back to 1999 and died a little

Hulk conked out
