Charles Leclerc topped the first F1 session of the weekend despite an early clash with Lance Stroll.
The contact at the hairpin left Leclerc with a broken front wing and Stroll with enough rear damage to rule him out for the remainder of the session.
Leclerc got going again and ended up fastest ahead of Max Verstappen, Lando Norris, Alex Albon and Oscar Piastri.
