"Lando, Oscar has bottled his lap, it's only fair if you bottle it too."
the call of the wall
so much drama in the last 5 min
Really thought Sainz had it there, then Max did Max things
48 minutes in until Q2, damn man. I am loving the Ferrari pace so far, I think Charles has a real chance of pole
Q2
Ferrari started well until....
Oh fuck Sainz pole
for that short moment
damn with that red flag that might be final
This could be amazing. Didn't have this on my bingo card
I hope F1TV's "advertisements" for the Paddock Club during qualification session won't be a recurring thing.
Holy shit. I was so glad I watched a few hours late so I could skip. Hinch is annoying at the best of times but those adverts were fucking awful.
Probably because tickets aren’t selling well for the rest of the season.
Damn 3 red flags and it's only q1. They seem to be struggling with the wind
Another one, gonna be some kind of a record of this keeps going.
No 5. Now it's starting to get wet
No. 6 lol This must be a record
and another one... 6?
yeah brutal
gedək /let’s go
So exciting. What a session. What an upset. I do wish Verstappen wasn't such a spoiler in qualifying, but nobody can deny his talent - an amazing driver who works hard for P1 of course, but a Sainz pole would've been fantastic lol
Oof, that was the longest qualification I ever watched. It holds the record of red flags, but that was epic nonetheless.
Missed opportunity for Mercedes and Norris.
Classic Lando bottle job.
Williams in P2!!
Ferrari 🤡
wow Hamilton out in q2
My stream dropped for 10 minutes, what happened?
he just interviewed and said the wrong tires
too late to push basically
CAN'T BELIEVE I OVERSLEPT AND MISSED IT LIVE.
Good grief. What a mad quali.
Far out, barely even started Q2 and another red.
putting my fake internet reputation point on Max and Isack in Q1
Turn 4 is a killer today
wow piastri out!
surprise rain for Q3
Lawson and Hadjar did really well
max is a beast. very impressive how he deliver the performance.
Something that came into my head: I wonder if its actually a good thing for Yuki that he didnt have all the simulator experience that Liam had when jumping into the RBR? That way he learned the cars difficulties on track, not on a computer that might not properly translate.
