In tabloid style, Robin Frijns of Envision Racing emerged as the fastest driver in the FP3 session preceding the second race of the Misano E-Prix double-header event. The Dutch driver clocked a time that broke the one minute and sixteen second barrier, edging out Pascal Wehrlein by just seven hundredths of a second. Jake Hughes of NEOM McLaren, who finished fourth in qualifying before being disqualified, showed impressive speed, indicating a promising qualifying session ahead. Nick Cassidy and Mitch Evans of Jaguar TCS Racing secured fourth and fifth positions, respectively, while Antonio Felix da Costa, seeking a strong comeback after a turbulent Saturday, claimed sixth place. However, da Costa’s victory from 14th place was later annulled due to a technical infringement. Jean-Eric Vergne, still upset with a five-second penalty he deemed unfair, finished in seventh place, with the DS Penske car showing strong potential for today’s race.

Sebastien Buemi completed the top ten, with all drivers within half a second of Frijns’ impressive time.
