Pirelli will testing a new tyre in this session. Each team will be required to run on the new rubber during the session.

We have a 40% chance of rain for this 60 minute session. Track temp 31.4C
Air temp 17.5C.
After Red Bull's dominance at the Red Bull Ring last week, can Mercedes close the gap this weekend? We shall see.
We are a little over 10 minutes away from opening practice.
