No way that is a used set on Sainz. They saved an extra set of Softs in FP3. They had enough tires to run new tires twice in Q3.

Didn't expect it to be so close, thought Max would be a lot more comfortable.

Was it ? was 3 tenths off Max on same tyres. Not bad surely ?
Story of AT being faster than 2nd RB driver continues.
It’s becoming more than a coincidence
Implying what? RBR sabotaging their own car? :roll:

Mega lap by Verstappen. Thought it would be closer.

4 tenths - that Red Bull is as quick as it appeared in testing and FPs.

Is it too early to say "it's the car!" :lol: :lol:

Leclerc only 3 tenths behind Hamilton - if anyone told you Ferrari would make those gains relative to Mercedes, I think most would not have believed it. Great job Charles.

Man, it's a reverse of last year, Hamilton is now on the backfoot, while Verstappen has a car with a bit more pace. Can Mercedes develop the car to match the Bull? Perhaps, but how much will it compromise them next year?

I expected Gasly to fight for pole instead of Ham. Ham did good job.
