Solid qualifying! The field is looking tight!
A bit off-topic but, given the lap time that Max (and Charles) managed to put in this qualifying session, if the race is close, either of them might be tempted to get the fastest lap point and break Pedro de la Rosa's record this year.
I feel like, if they couldnβt beat it in quali, they wonβt beat it in the race.
It's the fastest race lap, the quali times were 2s faster than that
Great showing by Mclaren, but I still wonder how the cars will hold up throughout the race
Aside from the Alpines getting knocked out at Q1, no major surprises in qualifying.
That's so damn tight.
Checo really not doing himself any favours.. outqualified by both ferrari and mercedes
If he keep on going like this I wouldn't be surprised if Sainz took his place next year.
Thatβs exactly what I was thinking. I bet RB tries to get Carlos before promoting Danny. I think Dannyβs biggest advantage right now is how much Christian likes him. Though Danny seemed to have pace in the RB19 that he doesnβt seem to have in the AT/RB. Iβd be curious to see how Yuki does in the RB19/RB20 for a head to head comparison.
how much Christian likes him
After reading the leaked text (and assuming in good faith that they are real in my extremely humble opinion) I am not sure how much value that has.
I didnβt see anything in the screenshot I saw. What text?
Did you see the link to GDrive, or just the screenshot compilation posted yesterday? If you go through all the texts it is bad.

Oof yea. Assuming this is real itβs definitely quite damning.
Just the screenshot. Iβll check this out. Thanks!
Good work by George to get 3rd.
Especially considering where Lewis finished.
Lewis sacrificed qualy by optimising for the race. We'll see how that goes.
Repeat of last year it seems
Vamos Fernando
Awesome work by Hulk so far
And they didnt broadcast any of his laps lol
When his time lit up, I was like "whoa, he's second, track evolution must be crazy!"
Nah, was just him being crazy
His qualifying game is really on point, isn't it.
I wonder if Max has an answer to that lap by Charles..
Don't think Perez will be a huge threat to Max this year either..
And boom
I fear this race is going to really mess me up.
I've already found myself looking for football half-time scores thinking its saturday
Field seems ridiculously close. Just a second from front to back
Right? Pretty amazing..
Imagine having a car that's slower on the second hot lap you do while everyone else improves at least from track evolution
Happy new season of F1!
@[email protected] thank you for having these posts up!
Thank you and everyone helping and participating! ππ
Otmar might be having the biggest grin across his face.
Damn Alpine what happened?
- Their car somehow is 10 kg heavier than last year
- Their engine still is the worst one as there is a ban on developing it
Nice lap by Stroll.
Alpine.. uff..
Gonna be a lonngggg season for them
So Mercedes' customers are faster than them
So far.. we kinda know that Merc might take a few races to get the most out of the new concept.
Where have we heard that before....?
Next upgradeTM, Lewis got tired of that so moving to next yearTM
No tire data/display unless they've set a time? Slightly annoying..
This is exciting.. quite a few unknowns, still.
