Verstappen had an all-new engine fitted to his Red Bull before the session.
Lando Norris, who has been looking quick in his heavily-upgraded McLaren, was over one-tenth off the pace.
Mercedes' George Russell was fourth-fastest and Ferrari's Charles Leclerc was behind in fifth.
Leclerc and teammate Lewis Hamilton will be taking a 10-place grid penalty for the race for taking new internal combustion engines.
Hamilton suffered issues inside the last 25 minutes of the session and returned to the garage. He finished in 12th.
