Team Summary:
Both Williams drivers would complete their installation laps but they had gone out on different tyres. The track would empty but with ten minutes complete Perez would be first back out and would set a 1m:34.956 to set the quickest time with Wehrlein second. More drivers would start to come out including both Williams cars. Alonso would go second followed by Grosjean and Wehrlein all on the medium tyre. The first moment of the session would be when Alonso would spin at the Spoon curve hitting the barrier but he was able to continue and return to his part with a slightly damaged car.
McLaren team-mate Button was now third while the Williams drivers would drop to seventh and eighth. Raikkonen was now quickest with a 1m:34.746 with Perez and Hulkenberg second and third. All three were on the soft tyre with Verstappen fourth on the hard tyre.

On the soft tyre Rosberg would go quickest with a 1m:33.751 followed by Hamilton and Raikkonen. Vettel would go third seeing team-mate Raikkonen fourth. Ricciardo and Verstappen were seventh and eighth running on the hard tyre. Perez was out running with the halo. With the first forty minutes complete the track would empty with the order Rosberg from Hamilton, Vettel, Raikkonen, Perez, Hulkenberg, Ricciardo, Verstappen, Alonso and Button tenth. The Williams pair were twelfth and fourteenth. Drivers would return with many switching tyre compounds with both Force India cars moving to the medium tyre. Still on the soft tyre Raikkonen would go second with a 1m:33.817 to be just 0.066 behind Rosberg. Vettel would go quickest with a 1m:33.525 only to see Rosberg move ahead with a 1m:32.431 with both on the soft tyre. Rosberg was 1.024 ahead of Vettel. Ricciardo was fifth, running on the medium tyre, with a 1m:34.112.

Hamilton would go second with a 1m:32.646 to be 0.215 behind Rosberg. The order was Rosberg, Hamilton, Vettel, Raikkonen, Ricciardo, Verstappen, Hulkenberg, Perez, Alonso and Valtteri tenth. The top four times were all set on the soft tyre. The session would come to an end with no change in the top ten. The Williams drivers would finish in tenth and sixteenth in what appeared to be a normal type of Friday running from the Williams team.

Valtteri Bottas:
Valtteri would follow his team-mate out for his installation lap but was running on the medium tyre. Valtteri would return continuing on the medium tyre and would set a 1m:37.126 to be third, dropping to fourth. As others went faster he would drop to eleventh. Valtteri would improve with a 1m:36.566 to be ninth. He would drop to twelfth and would also pit briefly leaving some nice rubber tyre tracks upon his return. Valtteri would pit returning to his garage having completed twelve laps. Valtteri would return coming out on new medium tyres. Valtteri would improve with a 1m:35.381 to be eighth. He would drop to ninth having pitted. Valtteri would return currently tenth still working through longer runs on the medium tyre. Valtteri's engineer would ask for two laps of "Bottas saving". What that is exactly we will not likely know. Valtteri would complete nineteen laps on his second run.

Felipe Massa:
Felipe would be first out for Williams running on the hard tyre completing his installation lap. Felipe would come out for his first run but had switched to the medium tyre. Felipe would set a slow 1m:53.731 to be slowest having run wide complaining about understeer at Turn one. His next lap was a 1m:43.087 to be twelfth. But his next lap would see him move up to fourth ahead of Valtteri with a 1m:36.934. Like Valtteri he would drop down the times being tenth, still complaining of understeer. This would become twelfth but Felipe was still on the medium tyre. Felipe would improve with a 1m:36.827 to be thirteenth. Felipe would pit briefly returning to the track only to pit again and return. He would also return to his garage having completed eleven laps.

With his mechanics working on his car Felipe would drop to sixteenth, still in his garage. With just under thirty minutes remaining Felipe would return to the track still on the medium tyre. Felipe would set a 1m:36.169 to be fifteenth. After just four laps Felipe would pit still looking to improve. He would drop to sixteenth to be behind Nasr. With eight minutes remaining Felipe would finally return to the track. He would not improve having only been able to complete another six laps.
