Fastest in FP2, FP3 and Q1, Leclerc looked favourite for pole but he to was halted at the start of Q3 and will start 10th.

He told Sky Sports: "I have no idea if it was the same problem as Sebastian. On my side, it was a fuel system problem.

I feel for the whole team. But the points are scored on a Sunday and I will give absolutely everything to make everyone smile again tomorrow. It is going to be a fun race 😬

"It's a shame, but we'll be trying to understand what happened to try and not reproduce it.

"I felt great in the car and the car felt great, all weekend. So it's a shame it ends up like this."
