Carlos Sainz has been diagnosed with appendicitis and will require surgery.

As from FP3 and for the rest of this weekend, he will be replaced by reserve driver Oliver Bearman. Oliver will therefore take no further part in this round of the F2 Championship.

📄 Horner: certain' Verstappen will see out Red Bull contract until 2028 amid Mercedes rumours

I’m certain he will [see out the remainder of his contract],” said Horner. “He has got a great team around him, he’s got great faith in that team.

“We’ve achieved a lot together. He’s committed to an agreement to 2028. From the team’s side, from Max’s side, we are determined to build on the success we’ve achieved already. Those 55 victories have all come in Red Bull cars, all of the podiums have come in Red Bull racing cars. We are determined to build on that and hopefully add many more in the future.”

#SaudiArabianGP Race simulation runs
With FP3 set to take place in the heat of the day, the teams need to make the most of these cooler conditions. As such, most have now swapped from those lower fuel flying laps to higher fuel runs.

A fair few have swapped back to their medium and hard tyres too.

#SaudiArabianGP Hamilton aborted a fast lap most likely due to traffic ahead.

He'll do another cooldown lap and try again. He's currently sitting P20 as he's yet to do a proper qualifying run
