Didn’t Max cross the white line at the exit of Turn 19?
He was definitely all-four-off at T12 (for which Zhou had two laps deleted, in Q1 and Q2) in his one and only Q1 run:

I guess as it's less than 5% off, the stewards and Red Bull will be negotiating a punishment they can both live with...
 
Here are the updated qualifying averages:

Leclerc +0.082
Verstappen +0.180
Sainz +0.240
Perez +0.569
Russell +0.917
Hamilton +1.046
Norris +1.098
Alonso +1.310
Ocon +1.459
Bottas +1.611
Gasly +1.696
Ricciardo +1.750
Tsunoda +1.812
Magnussen +1.912
Vettel +2.059
Zhou +2.068
Schumacher +2.107
Stroll +2.172
Albon +2.183
Latifi +2.890
 
Great start for Stroll. 5th on the grid. I've said it before but I think he's the best "paid" driver in the sport. It will be interesting to see what Alonso can do with the team next year. I think he is still one of the fastest drivers in the right car. He will outclass Stroll I'm quite sure and possibly lead the team to a higher standard. Alpine/Renault are on paper a works team but sure as hell don't perform like it.
 
Mercedes is actively working on Hamiltons brakes, potentially an issue there

Edit: seems that it has been fixed

Surprised there was no fly over unless I missed it.
 
Well Sainz didn't get a good start.
 
And Verstappen has won...
 
Russell may have tapped Sainz.

Sainz out.

Aston Martin amazing start!
 
Ah, OK... didn't notice the contact with Russell. 😔
 
Russell probably should have gotten a stiffer penalty.
 
5 sec for ending someone's race, sounds legit.
 
LOL at Croft trying to blame Sainz for Russell ramming into him.

George is a **** driver. There, I said it.
 
Mr. Saturday is back.
 
Albon is trying to find the appropriate racing line that isn't the actual racing line. Stewards are not impressed.
