F1, live | Singapore Grand Prix: free practice 3 and today’s Formula 1 classification live with Alonso, Sainz, Verstappen and Norris

Configuration changes for Fernando Alonso in his car. Alonso complained on Friday about the car’s balance and the lack of traction. Here, as Roldán Rodríguez commented on DAZN, you need a car that twists and turns very well in these curves, as Ferrari always does. The Aston Martin has a lot of understeer, and in the middle of a curve, with so much steering they had to use, it left a little to the rear and was hard to drive.

Verstappen was first on the medium tyre, with his team-mate Pérez half a second behind and Piastri in third position. We will see if Red Bull has taken a step forward as it did at the beginning of the year thanks also to the hard work of its simulator pilots at the Milton Keynes factory to find the right balance.

Carlos Sainz, rushed out to test his car with no brake problems yesterday, with no time to lose. He wants pole now and he knows that in FP3 any second can be crucial to fix his car and his confidence between the walls.

With 47 minutes remaining, the session resumes after 13 minutes lost due to a lizard appearing on the track. The stewards have to run after him but the lizard seems to have DRS activated, the speed is the same. In the end, they catch him only to leave him on the trail again.

The lizard was still on the track and they had to stop the session with a red flag. The lizard is now on the straight and heading for the pit lane.

After the reptile… it’s another animal, but in this case, competitive. Fernando Alonso, the first to take to the track. Like a wounded lion, without the weapon of others, he will try to perform another miracle as he has done in the last three GPs. He doesn’t have a Q3 car but wants to put it in there. In Singapore, taking advantage of the mistakes of others and having a comeback at the right time, Fernando believes it is possible.

The third free practice session begins F1 Singapore GP 2024. It’s time to fine-tune the cars for qualifying and finally find a rhythm that is more true and representative of all the cars. On Friday, McLaren and Ferrari were at the top together Norris and Leclerc. is missing Sainzwith brake problems, and we have to see if Carlos can fight for that pole for the victory like last year. And in this part, we should see if Piastre Because the distance improved yesterday.

There is also the doubt of Red Bull, which has problems. ‘Czech‘ Perez is 8th and Max Verstappen15th. And Mercedes is far away. Can any of them improve and join the party with the McLarens and Ferraris? It doesn’t seem like it.

Carlos Sainz Yesterday he had a mechanical problem with his car which affected him in Free Practice 1 and Free Practice 2. That could hinder him and slow him down in the important progress that every driver needs at this track to add confidence in their times and become closer. on the walls. He needs to use FP3, once his car problems are fixed, to have the confidence in his car to fight for pole.

In the third free practice, the drivers have to be careful, more than at the other tracks, because an accident between the walls shortly before qualifying could ruin their weekend and the day of their mechanic

On the other hand, with that added pressure, drivers have to try to fine-tune their cars by finding the best possible balance of their cars in front of an important classification because of how difficult overtake on Sunday, but at the same time, a good balance for the race.

Welcome to F1 Singapore GP 2024. Welcome to day two of the Marina Bay event, where the starting grid for tomorrow’s race will be decided. Equity is huge and so is emotion in a circuit as complex as this one, where nothing can be taken for granted.
