Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc continued Ferrari’s recent improvements in final practice at the F1 Canadian Grand Prix, setting two of the four fastest times in the qualifying simulation runs.

McLaren’s disappointing Canadian GP weekend went from bad to worse on Saturday, after experiencing what Lando Norris had called their worst Friday of the year.

FP1 and FP2 saw the runaway championship leaders struggle to match the pace of some of their rivals, leaving them hoping for a bounce-back in Saturday’s third and final practice session.

Instead, Oscar Piastri tagged the famous Wall of Champions on the exit of the final chicane, puncturing his right-rear tyre and causing some damage to his papaya car, with stewards red flagging the session to clear up the debris.

Norris did provide a spark of hope in the second half of the session though, setting the fastest time in the qualifying simulation runs.

Red Bull had problems of their own around the Montreal circuit, with Max Verstappen complaining about a lack of bite from his brakes and Yuki Tsunoda sat in the garage for almost the full hour with his brakes in pieces.

In Tsunoda’s brief time on track, he may have damaged his grid position – the stewards announcing that he and Franco Colapinto are under investigation for red flag infringements.
