Seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton crashed his Ferrari into the wall at turn three during FP3 at the Monaco Grand Prix, causing a late red flag.

Hamilton suffered a snap of oversteer as he was coming up the hill around the iconic Monaco circuit, and that sent him careering into the barriers, ruining the right-hand side of his Ferrari.

Hamilton and his team-mate Charles Leclerc had looked to have good pace throughout the three practice sessions, and both were hoping to be candidates for claiming pole position during the all-important qualifying session.

Hamilton makes uncharacteristic error

It makes qualifying more important than at most circuits on the F1 calendar, and Hamilton will be fancying himself for a top-four starting position at least.
