Sebastian Vettel's Aston Martin had an engine fail bringing out the red flags.
This period lasted over a half hour due to the possibility of electric shock from the ERS.

FP2 was red flagged twice in the session.
Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes had a power issue after completing 3 laps and stopped on the circuit.
Nikita Mazepin lost the rear of his Haas and ended in the gravel with about the 25 minutes remaining.
Each of these red flags disrupted Max Verstappen fast laps.

Both Williams made it through to Q2 and both Williams crashed out bringing out red flags.
George Russell, on his final run, lost the rear entering the penultimate corner.
Nicholas Latifi dropped his left rear onto the dirt and also spun off, this time in turn 9. The rear of the car went in first and it ended the session.
