    But he's now back up and running.

    Daniel Ricciardo has had a good session in his RB. He's currently sixth-fastest and is 0.554 seconds off the leader Lando Norris.

    Nico Hulkenberg in the Haas has also been doing some running on the soft tyre and he sits in the top ten in eighth.

    It's only third-fastest for the Dutchman and he's seen shaking his head. Oh no!

    Max Verstappen has now bolted on the soft tyres for the first time this session.

    Let's see what he can do...

    Lots of work being done, lots of lap times being done - especially Red Bull, who are really trying to gather data and get on top of this big upgrade that they've brought this weekend.

    Max Verstappen has put in 20 laps so far. The lap times aren't showcasing much but they really are putting in the mileage.

  7. Norris goes fastestpublished at 12:18 British Summer Time 20 July

    The McLaren of Lando Norris has put in an impressive lap as he improves and goes top of the timesheet.

    He set a time of 1:16.098 on the soft tyres.

    The Brit finished P1 in second practice on Friday, let's see if he can do the same again today.

    With under 15 minutes to go, George Russell is still at the top of the timesheets with his team-mate Lewis Hamilton 0.222 seconds behind.

    Most drivers are running on the soft tyres apart from the Aston Martins of Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll who are on the mediums.

    The Red Bulls of Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez have stuck with the hard tyres for the whole session so far.

    Red Bull continue with their split-car philosophy for this final practice session. Verstappen has both the new floor from Silverstone and the new aerodynamic package introduced in Hungary (engine cover, halo, front and rear corner, front wing), Perez only the floor, the team say.

  10. 'Silverstone win a boost for Hamilton'published at 12:12 British Summer Time 20 July

    Lewis Hamilton has had that boost off the back of the British Grand Prix win - which I'm sure will help. And these little psychological things make such a difference, as we touched on with Sergio Perez in the negative sense, it equally works in the positive sense when you have a great result - particularly one the world was talking about with Lewis' win at Silverstone. It gives you that boost that can carry forward into the remaining races.

    It's a lot cooler today, it's around 26C, which is five or so degrees cooler than it was yesterday. And it's got cloud cover - which is going to make a big difference to track temperatures, which could bring Mercedes into the picture.

  14. Postpublished at 12:04 British Summer Time 20 July

    Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton is running on the soft tyre but sits only ninth-fastest.

    Will he be able to improve on a different tyre?

    The Brit will be hoping for another podium this weekend after winning a magical British Grand Prix a couple of weeks ago.

    However, his team-mate George Russell has popped his Mercedes top of the timesheets with a time of 1:16.826.

    Charles Leclerc almost had another moment coming through that fast, uphill left-hander at Turn Four where he crashed yesterday, the rear stepping out on him but he saved it on that occasion.

  16. 'Grip is getting better' for Russellpublished at 12:00 British Summer Time 20 July

    George Russell on the other hand said on his Mercedes team radio that the "grip is getting better" as he goes round the Hungaroring.
