Jack Doohan crashed heavily at the first corner just minutes into the session.
The impact tore the two left-hand wheels off the Alpine and drew a lengthy red flag as repairs were made to the barriers.
There was a second red flag when Fernando Alonso found the gravel at Degner 1, with a third and fourth for grass fires.
It made the session difficult to read as teams had their programs heavily compromised, though McLaren again emerged on top.
