That wasn’t the only lizard to get out on the track in FP1 though as two more yellow flags were waved throughout the session.

All three lizards were able to get across the track without any harm though.

But the F1 drivers will be hoping track stewards will be able to keep the reptiles at bay throughout the weekend.

While aborting laps in free practice can be frustrating, the session isn’t seen as paramount for lap times.
