Anyone watching Lewis' lap, did he make a mistake anywhere or was it just slow.

Merc are not running the barn door. Went with Lewis’ wing from FP3. Quicker down straights, worse for race pace/tyre deg

Probably better than having a chance of starting amongst the alpines/alfa romeos with a huge rear wing

Huge one from Sargeant. Outqualifying Gasly in an Alpine.

Yup. And aside from Stroll i don't believe anyone at the top finished their second laps. More time to come.

Very close midfield. Properly impressive HUL lap. Budget cap doing its work beautifully
