Lucky, I think Max would have had that. Race will be really hard tomorrow though.

Think Max would have had that pole but it’s all business as usual.

Max will be leading by the end of lap 1 though with the run to T1
Just a fan's point of view

I dobt think Lando was beating Max. But, you have to take it where you can. It was fully deserved, but unexpected!

Actually you never really know what would happen. Norris might have found even more time on the second sector than his first try. It was much closer this time.

If Lando tomorrow gets 1st place in that first corner then he will have the upper hand in clear air.

Max definitely would have had that. I think he was 2 tenths up before he had to abort.

I hope team could do something with the tyre degradation.

He was 0.172 on that first sector just like his first run but nothing suggests he would definately gotten that as he lost a lot of time in his first try on sector 2 and 3 and he had a similar time on sector 1.

Max would have had provisional pole on the first lap too had he not messed up T19.

Anyway, car is not good around here. They are (probably) bottoming out on the first sector :

Still debatable. Many things happening during a lap. Who's to say that Max wouldn't have a snap of oversteer? There's a huge distance about what would happen and what actually happened. Would you expect George crashing?

We shall see in 3 hours if the team manages to find a more ideal set up cause I notice that Mclaren doesn't find the ideal set up immediately. Unless though we are very weak at Austin.
🗣 Andrea Stella after the sprint race:

"We have learnt and gathered good data which we can use to change the set up."
These changes will be key, if Mclaren want to show the others they are up for this championship fight it’s time to show their mettle
That’s a satisfactory turn around for me

So quick question. Are we still with the Miami upgrade package going with tweaks here and there?
