Incredible stuff from Pierre Gasly!
A stonking 1:32.547 jumps him up to eighth, a tenth of a second quicker than his more experienced team-mate Carlos Sainz.
Superb effort.

This could, in the next three minutes, be the most pivotal moment of the Championship so far!

Sebastian Vettel is back in the cockpit. It looks like he is ready to go.
Or is he!?
They were preparing to remove the tyres covers but look to have abandoned that now.
