The session was briefly red-flagged after As🃏ton Martin driver Fernando Alonso reported over the radio thaꦑt he'd seen the lizard in the middle of the track.

Two track marshals chased the long-tailed reptile and the session resumed short⭕ly after.

Title challenger Lando Norris of McLaren set the fastest time, while standings leader Max Verstappen was fourth-fastest and reported his Red Bull car felt better than it had during a difficult second practice se🅠ssion the day before.
