The final practice session for the Singapore Grand Prix was interrupted on Saturday because of a lizard invading the track, forcing race control to halt the event.

Given how strong Ferrari was in Monaco, this was a track that most anticipated would suit the SF-24 car. Leclerc and teammate Sainz, who won in Singapore last year, showed flashes of pace through practice, only to end up ninth and 10th on the grid for lights out on Sunday.

The Formula 1 series is set to make its annual trip to Singapore at the Marina Bay Street Circuit on Sunday, which means Saturday marked the all-important practice race to fine-tune ahead of the main event. However, Saturday's practice race was marred by a delay by an unexpected source: a giant lizard.
