Norris snatches Piastri's top grid spot, as Hamilton's disappointing F1 season persists
In the final practice session before the Dutch Grand Prix, McLaren's Lando Norris claimed the top spot, setting a strong pace for the upcoming race. Oscar Piastri finished a close second, just under two and a half tenths behind Norris, while George Russell rounded out the top three.
However, the FP3 session was not without incident. A near-collision involving Williams' George Russell and Alpine's Fernando Alonso caused a stir, but the race stewards determined that neither driver was at fault. Despite this, Alonso expressed his dissatisfaction with Lewis Hamilton's influence at Ferrari, referring to it as "useless."
The near-collision between Russell and Alonso was a tense moment for the drivers and spectators alike. The stewards' findings revealed that the incident was not the fault of either driver, putting to rest any speculation about potential penalties.
Lewis Hamilton did not provide specific results for the FP3 session, with no explicit information available about his performance. Meanwhile, Carlos Sainz finished in fourth place, with Max Verstappen completing the top five.
As the Dutch Grand Prix approaches, the controversy surrounding Alonso's comments about Hamilton continues to simmer. The Ferrari driver's strong feelings about Hamilton's influence at the team have been made clear, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the weekend's events.
