A fire in the pit lane for Kevin Magnussen caused a lengthy delay during first practice.
The Dane had only completed an installation lap, like much of the field, when his car burst into flames while being pushed back into the garage.
The fire lasted for a number of minutes as the team and marshals fought to put the fire out.
Nobody was hurt in the incident, but the car and track surface were covered in a thick layer of foam, leading to a a long clean-up period.
