Ollie Bearman's Free Practice 3 in Melbourne was halted after the Haas driver spun into the gravel on his first flying lap of the session at the Australian Grand Prix weekend.
After a heavy crash at Turn 10 in FP1 on Friday ended his day after just 12 laps, Bearman had hoped to make up for lost time on Saturday morning.
But a touch of the grass on entry to Turn 11 caused his Haas to pivot midway through his first flying lap of FP3, with the car coming to a halt in the gravel.
