Oh no, Kimi. 😑

 

[Fezzik]

Oh Kimi, but gets through to Q2 in 15th.
They really should've adopted the rule chance and deleted times for anyone causing a red flag.

Colapinto last. Doohan could've done that. Don't come after me Argentina, you know it's true

 

[IforceV8]

Ferrari's fastest in sec 1 and 2, McLaren in sec 3.

 

[TumeK5]

Oh Kimi, but gets through to Q2 in 15th.

Sure, but if only he had a car...

 

[Fezzik]

That'll be a penalty for Lewis

 

[MagpieRacer]

That'll be a penalty for Lewis

I think the end of qualifying will very much be a 'provisional grid'.

 

[Fezzik]

Ferrari and Williams on the mediums

I could watch Leclerc drive round here all day any day

 

[Fezzik]

Russell lost power in the tunnel. Red flag. Nightmare session for the Mercs, will start 14th and 15th (provisionally).
They may have to take a gamble for the race and do the lap 1 & lap 2 double stop strategy.

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Aw man, now George stopped in the tunnel. Red flag. 😐

 

[NotThePrez]

Sounds like George hit a kerb and that caused the car shutdown. Same thing that killed Antonellis car in Imola.

Edit: Nope, he actually lost 90% of his power going up the hill after Turn 1, and then the car totally shut down before the tunnel. That's a weird one for sure.

 

[PaMu1337]

Did he just manage to roll it all the way down, or did he still have some power?

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Coasting to the tunnel instead of pulling off around Turn 5 or somewhere was weird.

 

[Fezzik]

Coasting to the tunnel instead of pulling off around Turn 5 or somewhere was weird.

He was trying to restart the electronics

 

[Sum1s2pid]

He was trying to restart the electronics

Ah. I guess he also figured he'd be able to limp into the pits.

edit: Holy lap times, Charles. 😮

moar edit: Landoooooooooooo!

 

[Fezzik]

Sainz and Tsunoda out in Q2. Yuki behind both of the RBs.

 

[NotThePrez]

A sketchy but excellent drift from Piastri!

 

[IforceV8]

Ideal lap 1:10.408 Q2

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Albon has been doing some amazing things in that Williams.

 

[Fezzik]

So a 3 way battle between Charles, Lando and Max?
Oscar and Lewis don't seem quite as on it today.

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Lawson made Q3?! Well done.

Still feels weird cheering on Ocon.

 

[Fezzik]

McLaren going early for a clear track, vs waiting for the extra rubber

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Wow! Landooooooooooooo! I thought Charles had that with 20 seconds left. 😮

 

[Fezzik]

Lando the breaker of hearts

Wasn't expecting Lewis ahead of Max (pending a stewards decision)

 

[NotThePrez]

Sub 1:10 from Norris! That's a new lap record!

 

[McLaren]

 

[Fezzik]

I think the extra pit stop puts Leclerc in a strong position for tomorrow. Ferrari have definitely had the faster & more reliable pit crew so far this year. McLaren have had a few slow stops and they can't afford that here.

 

[Veinz]

I’m really interested to see if anyone stops on lap 1 and 2.

 

[Fezzik]

3 place grid penalty for Hamilton for impeding Verstappen.

Moves Max up alongside Piastri on row 2. Oscar better not brake too early again for turn 1.

 

[egl92]

I’m really interested to see if anyone stops on lap 1 and 2.

Mercedes starting p14 and p15 could try it with one of the cars.
