Lance Stroll had a disastrous start to his weekend at the Circuit of the Americas for the US Grand Prix, getting just five laps in before a front brake issue brought his session to a premature end.
With this being a sprint race weekend, the Canadian driver will have no further practice sessions to get his Aston Martin dialled in – going straight into qualifying later on Friday before Saturday's self-contained sprint event.
Max Verstappen took his customary place at the top of the timing boards, but was only one and a half tenths ahead of the Ferrari of Charles Leclerc, with Lewis Hamilton also looking impressive.
