LIVE: F1 cars parts fall off on track ahead of quali
Albert Park is set for a bumper day of action this Saturday with Aussie Oscar Piastri looking to replicate his form from FP2 into qualifying later today.
But before we get to the qualification, we've got one final free practice session for all 22 drivers to get their cars in tip top shape.
See all the key moments below.


Cadillac not off to the greatest start
Being the new kids on the block in the F1 world, Cadillac is still very much in the learning process of its cars.
And following some issues yesterday, those issues became very apparent.
During the first practice session, Sergio Perez would lose his right mirror whilst driving.
And then, the Mexican encountered hydraulics issues in the second practice session.
While Perez would lose his right mirror, co-driver Valterri Bottas lost his left mirror during Friday's action.
It's not the first time it's happened with Bottas having the right mirror during pre-season testing at Bahrain last month.
Hopefully that can put this all in the rear view mirror and set a blistering time.

P3 underway
The third practice session is underway and we've gotten a red flag.
Williams' Carlos Sainz was unable to get his car back into the pits following his out lap.
Racing as resume with the car now moved out of the pit lane entry.
Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli currently leads the pack with a time of 1:20.324.
