McLaren continued their strong start to the weekend by finishing 1-2 in final practice at Suzuka. There was just a tenth between Norris and teammate Oscar Piastri.

George Russell looks set to be their nearest challenger, around a tenth off the McLarens pace. Charles Leclerc was just ahead of Max Verstappen in fourth and fifth respectively.

Lewis Hamilton was sixth overall, while Alex Albon and Pierre Gasly rounded out the top eight.

Yuki Tsunoda was once again inside the top 10 for Red Bull, pipping Isack Hadjar.

The session was halted on two occasions due to fires around the track – something the FIA have yet to stop from happening.
