Man, looking to be a disastrous weekend for Aston Martin. Alonso out in Q1 for the first time this season.
Wow, Max made a mistake 😦.
Great to see Norris on front row and congrats to Leclerc for Pole.
All gearing up for a great race on Sunday.
I thought he exceeded limits on his last lap in Q1 on turn 9. So he probably shouldn't have even made Q3. That that's why I thought they told Alonso to stay in his car.
To be honest when I was watching I felt the same.
Both Aston's out, guess the upgrades aren't working.
They had no laps to work on the setup. Bad idea to bring new stuff to a sprint weekend.
Of course, not enough time to iron out the kinks.
Hulk on #1, Mag on #12 lol
Edit: how the tablets turn..
That didn't age well 😔
Woops
Could be close between Mercedes, Ferrari, maybe McLaren and maybe, maybe even Verstappen, unless he's just ahead by five tenths again.
Well Aston Martin regression this season is insane
I like this grid!
Same. Lap 1 should be spicy and Oscar will have something to prove. Add Max having some work to do...
Oooooooh what a spicy Q3. Fun watch.
Haas???
Edit: Maybe it's just the track evolution
Feel sorry for Hulkenberg, first to knocked out. Track limits strike again
Here I was, thinking "well, Alonso hasn't finished his lap yet, 16th is frustrating for Danny Ric."
Then he crossed the line.
Max gonna have to do just a little bit of work this weekend starting at P6.
That Hamilton oversteer.
Rickyrocket done fucked up, not a great comeback :(
I would be glad with a Q2 appearance despite getting that last lap deleted. 1 hour of practice Isn't much for getting used to the physical stress of driving again let alone the car. We could see some overtakes tomorrow..
Is this track going to be like Singapore for RedBull is there a chance we will see another new race winner?
Or am I putting too much stock in Verstappen coming in 3rd in Q1?
My commentators have been going on about how "maybe Verstappen is on used tires" for all of Q1 and Q2
Interesting, Stroll currently in #7
