The first half of the day saw three red flags in the opening 90 minutes, with Enzo Fittipaldi (Carlin) and Campos’ Kush Maini stopping on track.
Brad Benavides, testing for Charouz, then hit the wall and was unable to continue running in that session.
As temperatures dropped in the afternoon, Verschoor usurped his time, with Hauger finishing fourth overall.
Roman Stanek brought out an early red flag in his Trident-run car after coming to a halt on track, while another stoppage came after Hitech F3 graduate Jak Crawford spun into the barriers at Turn 2.
