Bearman, the British reserve who will be racing for Haas next season, was driving Charles Leclerc's car in the hour-long practice. "As long as the chassis is OK, we will be fine for FP2 . If the chassis is damaged, it's a bit more significant." Mercedes' seven-times world champion Lewis Hamilton was also absent, handing over his car to Italian Kimi Antonelli.
