Ferrari led the way in Friday practice ahead of Saturday's qualifying, with Charles Leclerc topping the more representative FP2 session by over two tenths of a second.

Lando Norris was a surprise second for McLaren, while Daniel Ricciardo showed Norris' pace wasn't a fluke by setting the fifth-fastest lap behind Carlos Sainz (Ferrari) and the top Red Bull of championship leader Max Verstappen.
