Rain wrecks third practice at French Grand Prix

Final practice at the French Grand Prix was rendered meaningless by heavy rain.
Mercedes driver Valtteri Bottas set the fastest time with a lap at the very beginning of the session before the rain started to fall.
Within five minutes, rain was falling at Turn Five, at the top of the track, and had soon enveloped the entire circuit.
The Circuit Paul Ricard was silent for 40 minutes before a few cars began to venture out, just to get a feel for the conditions.
Only the two Williams drivers, Lance Stroll and Sergey Sirotkin, completed timed laps but they were more than 20 seconds off the pace.
The circuit was surrounded by clouds as the session ended and conditions for qualifying are uncertain.

2018 French quali. The Silver Arrows finally have upgraded power units. The Ferraris are potent but haven’t quite figured it out. Red Bull is still in the mix. Interesting new “old” track. There’s even a Sauber in P8:huh:
