Surprised the gap is only 0.059 has the track temperatures reached that point where even the Ferrari and Red Bulls don't like it.

Ferrari in a league of their own in S1. Merc still struggling with the US. RB a couple of tenths down in every sector.

Vettel was 4 tenths slower in S3 on his fastest lap compared to what he has done before. Question is if he made a mistake or if he cooked the tyres in S1 and S2.

Vettel has pace in hand. His first fast lap he was 2 to 3 tenths faster in S3 and he can find another tenth or more in s2 if he nails it all together.

There is absolutely no chance that Vettel will lose pole, unless force majeure strikes of course.

My guess is that he was affected by Bottas disturbed air in S3

Looking at the speed trap data and Ferrari's S1 times they're definitely running less DF but that doesn't seem to hinder them in S2.

Why do you think they run less DF if their speed is better? And I'm not thinking about PU.

And they call it a stall. A STALL!

Wet Qually, certainly for Q1 anyway. This could mess things up abit. Could be a mix up with a drying track in Q2/Q3.

And to think I was about to go to bed!

Going to be an "edge of the seat" Quali, for sure.

I hope there are some surprises from the midfield as well!
