A real chance at pole though.

Norris didn't have pace for pole. Rain.

Piastri seems to have gone off due to rain as well.

I think our both drivers got hit by rain. We are very unlucky. Come the --- on. Verstappen is very locky here.

Norris would be P2 or P3 if it didn't rain in his last sector.

Rain hit Piastri, slippy surface and couldn't get the car round.

Ted saying that the wind had picked up massively also and that this was the reason he lost grip.

I guess we'll get another fun race on Sunday.

A shame - I think the team would be P2 and P3 if it didn't rain.

I don't think this can be put down to luck, team should have made sure to be first in the queue.

Seems like the wind caught us out more than any rain, shame, more promising pace and we managed to screw it

Team's fault, should've started the lap earlier, like others. Another missed opportunity
