Hamilton beats Ocon to top final practice at Belgian GP
Lewis Hamilton beat Esteban Ocon to take top spot in the final practice session for Formula 1’s Belgian Grand Prix, where light rain at Spa meant little running took place.
Verstappen slotted himself into the gap between Bottas and Hamilton before a long lull in action took place as spots of rain returned.

The four-time F1 world champion had also been forced to catch a big oversteer moment as he ran through Les Combes earlier in the session, locking his left-front as he stopped his SF1000 running off to the right of the track.
