    Bonkers lap by Sainz. Verstappen’s lap deleted for track limits.

    Spicy qualifying so far.

    Impressive lap by Sainz. Even Verstappen showed up when the pressure was on. Considering the pace shown throughout the weekend, it seems Lando has underperformed.

    Ferrari probably already rubbing their hands given that both of their rival teams have lost one driver in Q1

    Piastri out in 16th, wow. Bottas makes it into Q2.

    Kmag’s been having some strong quali laps recently.

    Sainz pole! Wonder if he’ll be able to hold onto the lead and win tomorrow.

    Gasly with a pretty good P8. Please don’t screw up the strategy tomorrow, Alpine…

      My guess is he’ll be #1 after first corner, because VER will only focus on cutting off NOR. VER is not out to win races anymore, he just needs to be in front of NOR to win the WDC.

        He doesn’t even have to be in front of Norris, just near by.

          True. But when he stays in front of NOR, he’s in control, so I think that’ll be his objective throughout the coming races. That’s WDC guaranteed.

    Wurz quite disappointed on commentary right now that Tsunoda is driving on the moped without helmet lol

        I was thinking about that while I was posting it lol

        He’ll probably end up grabbing a point or two, but I feel for the Perez fans that came to this race.

    Perez says he has the same problem as in Singapore and Austin… couldn’t use the brakes aggressively

    I see there being a red flag to end the session. The times are ridiculously close and I can see somebody bin it pushing to the limit and going over it

    Edit : I was very wrong
