Why didn't Max's DRS not open? Lewis almost got him with less than 1 tenth behind. Max lost a half or 1 tenth.

Mercedes showed they have left in the tank & Mercedes are in the inside line going into Tarzan !

I'm surprised how close Lewis got to Max in the end. Great laps by both drivers, let's hope for some clean, hard, fair racing for tomorrow!

This season has been Max vs Mercedes. Really he is putting that RBR where it does not belong.

The tank was done! It was the track evolution Mercrdes took advantage of. I think Max played it safe in his second run. The speed traces say he had much more speed into corners.

Why didn’t Max use DRS going towards finish line at the end?
Yea. Was that intentional? Was he over-confident?

Hamilton was 1.5 tenths ahead of Verstappen in S3 & he was between 2-2.5 tenths behind till S2. Max almost lost pole & lost 2 tenths. I don't know if his DRS work in the other straight.

Nice routine Verstappen pole! :D

"Simply lovely."

Though only 0.03s in it in the end. No improvement on Max's final lap.

#-o which world you are in. RB is a at least a notch faster than merc. 6 poles in last 7 races.
We need a miracle. We need only one racing lap.

He was, I think 2 tenths quicker than Lewis who sandbagged in Q2 & Q1. But that issue or intentional mistake (by being over-confident) could have cost him pole & a race win !

Another thing look @ the size of massive wing of Williams & still clocking 310+ km. Mercedes, you will, agree is a shade ahead of Honda in PU & should head into Monza as well in a strong position. This will be a fun season. Mercedes are rumoured to bring another upgrade & probably Red Bull will !
