Final practice abandoned after Sainz accident

Red Bull/Getty Images Third practice for the Russian Grand Prix was brought to an end after 35 minutes following a worrying crash for Toro Rosso driver Carlos Sainz Jr. Sainz’s Toro Rosso came to a rest beneath the barriers on the exit of Turn 13, with tyre marks along the wall on the entry to the corner. Replays showed that Sainz lost control of his STR10 on the approach to braking, striking the outside wall before continuing straight on. Sainz was taken away on a stretcher but gave the thumbs-up as he was loaded into an awaiting ambulance. Nico Rosberg had been fastest in the session prior to the stoppage.
