Looking at the stables, the two Mercedes drivers were followed by Red Bull and then the Renault pair.

Ferrari is completing the 1000th race in its F1 history this weekend – the cars have received a special look – but their drivers are not excelling: the Monaco Charles Leclerc the tenth, four-time World Cup winner is German Sebastian Vettel closed at place 12 in the afternoon.

Training had to be interrupted twice for a short time due to a minor accident. Half of the practice is British Lando norris (McLaren) ended up on the gravel bed after a lost turn, so while they were hauling their car, the teammates stood out.

As training comes to an end, so do the Mexicans from the pit lane Sergio perez (Racing Point) pushed the Finn off the track to the end of the finish line Kimi Räikkönent (Alfa Romeo).

For this latest incident, Pérez was sentenced to an initial penalty. According to the judges, his team warned their Mexicans of Räikkönen’s arrival and saw him in the rearview mirror. Pérez responded very long to the exit of the pits and already had such speed that he could not change.
