If the Swiss was able to get up without too much damage (he was still taken care of by the medical team, who hastened to put a cervical collar on him), his machine, on the other hand, left a lot of debris on the tarmac, thus making the track conditions impassable.
The session was nevertheless able to resume shortly after, Caricasulo making a final time progression to take the lead, ahead of Aegerter and Randy Krummenacher. Raffaele de Rosa and Steven Odendaal complete the top 5, while Philipp Öttl and Frenchman Jules Cluzel follow behind in sixth and seventh positions.
