Leclerc led FP1 from Verstappen and Norris, then topped FP2 again with Antonelli only 0.042s behind and Verstappen 0.189s off the pace. Warm and dry conditions are expected again in Austin, with high track temperatures and gusty winds adding another challenge. π΄ FERRARI F1 β LECLERC FASTEST ALL FRIDAY Leclerc topped both practice sessions, while Hamilton improved to P4 in FP2. Ferrari say their upgrades worked as expected, although Leclerc warned their rivals may still have more performance to unlock. Can Ferrari stay on top when qualifying simulations become serious? β« MERCEDES F1 β ANTONELLI JUST 0.042s AWAY Antonelli improved from P5 in FP1 to P2 in FP2 after Mercedes made progress with the car balance. George Russell was P5 and believes more pace is available. With Antonelli able to clinch the F1 World Championship this weekend, every lap matters. π΅ MAX VERSTAPPEN + RED BULL Verstappen was P2 in FP1 and P3 in FP2. Red Bull resolved a steering issue on Maxβs car but still want more low-speed performance and better compliance over COTAβs bumps. Can Max find enough for pole contention? π§‘ McLAREN F1 β PRESSURE BEFORE QUALIFYING McLaren finished FP2 with Lando Norris P7 and Oscar Piastri P8. Both struggled to extract consistent performance, with Piastri highlighting a lack of grip. McLaren say their long-run pace looked stronger and their COTA upgrades are delivering as expected β but FP3 is vital if they want to close the gap. π F1 LIVE TIMING + MINI TRACK β’ F1 Live Timing β’ Mini track visuals β’ Position changes β’ Sector-by-sector analysis β’ Soft-tyre qualifying runs β’ Tyres and long-run pace β’ Team radio reaction β’ Tony Craig F1 Live commentary π F1 LIVE CHAT Who tops FP3?
