BRITISH GRAND PRIX - FREE PRACTICE #3
Mercedes didn't waste any time in final practice session of the weekend, quickly taking the top 2 spots on the time sheets. Following close behind was Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen. Sebastian Vettel completed the top 5 in the Ferrari. However, at the end of the session, Vettel once again reported an apparent gearbox failure.
Red Flags were waved with around 20 minutes left in the session when Marcus Ericsson spun across the track and crashed heavily into the barriers. Ericsson was able to get out of the car on his own and did not appear to have any serious injuries. The crash was so severe that his steering wheel popped off during the impact. The session was restarted with 5 minutes left after the barriers were repaired.
