It's that first lap that is the problem. Almost a second off to Lando, like come on. Unless he made a mistake which can happen, but it's SQ1, you're supposed to put a banker in to be comfortable.
He was much slower in S1 on his first lap (Norris didn't have a great T1 as well) so it was probably a mistake for most of the time lost. Also Norris nailed his S3.
Is the top speed low? We seem to be losing a lot of time in the first part but gain a lot of time in the second and third parts. Mercedes look very good and Ferrari are also quick. We don't seem to be able to match them today. Perhaps set up issues.

If you think of it Max is our opponent. If Lando can finish in front of him tomorrow with as many places as possible even if he is not first then all is well. Let's see the soft run at Q3 to see where they all stand.
Lando was 0,014 on the second part before he ended his time.

Now they are gonna probably use softs. Now we can see who is better on the fastest tyre.
Lando did back off but he was 0.014 on the second part of his second lap.
In any case Max is our opponent and Lando has to focus to gain as many more points than Max as possible in tomorrow's sprint and if possible be as many places in front today in the sprint than Max. Ferrari and Mercedes are not stable. One stage they are good and the next they are nowhere.

The first part of the track we seem to be struggling due to the first corner. If Lando nails that then he will have gained a lot of time. We need one perfect lap.
Soft tyre run. Moment of truth. We need a perfect lap.
