Very disappointed by Sainz. Usually these are his conditions to shine.
Both of the drivers did well today, neither of them made huge errors. Ultimately, they were fighting a car which is currently not well balanced and the track conditions are working against them. I imagine it's a lot easier for us to be disappointed than it is for them to execute the lap.
Regarding the tire warm up... considering it's been months of this issue, they either 1. don't know how to fix it, or 2. don't know how to fix it without sacrificing pace. They aren't going to fix it between now and AD.
I miss celebrating Leclerc's poles, but I don't miss going into every weekend knowing the car has no race pace.
Unrelated, Sainz got noted for an unsafe release and is off to the stewards. Will probably be a team fine.
