2018 Mexico Grand Prix - Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, 26-28 October

Danny the only Red Bull pole sitter for pretty much 5yrs now!

max and vettel both been in there who are apparently the best over 1 lap

"Ric is not as fast as Max". Right.

+1

[NathanOlder]

I'm starting to think that Max cracks when he has the 'favourite' pressure. Monaco , Singapore and here. He seems better at being the underdog with no expectations

[MtthsMlw]

One thing is for sure, that'll be a very interesting run down to turn one

[GrandAxe]

Please what were Q1 and Q2 results?
I set my alarm for the wrong time, then wondered over to get the last 15 minutes of tittle tattle before quali, only to find it was the start of Q3!

Lewis with a nice double toe slipstream from the clean side. Or does he sit back with a box of popcorn and watch Max and Danny fight into turn 1.

[Just_a_fan]

Vettel first in to turn 1, I reckon. The Ferrari is straight line quick. Or he might get close to Danny / Max in to 1. Then it could be a repeat of last year...

[GrandAxe]

Poor Max, there actually seemed to be a tear or two in his eyes. No record for him, life's hard sometimes.

Was that like a youngest ever pole position record?

[MtthsMlw]

Also Hulk back in his usual spot

[Morteza]

Was that like a youngest ever pole position record?

Yes.
Vettel currently holds the record. At Monza 2008 he was 21 years, 72 days old. Max is currently 21 years, 27 days old if I'm not mistaken.

[NathanOlder]

Was that like a youngest ever pole position record?

Yeah , he needs pole this season to beat Vettels record. Bu Australia next year he will be older than what Vettel was in Monza 2008.

Edit : Morteza beat me to it.

[GrandAxe]

Was that like a youngest ever pole position record?

Yep, except there's a miracle in future races, today offered his only chance at it.

Seb hold's the record at 21 years 72 days.
Max is 21 years 28 days old today, by next season he will be way over the mark.

Toes in, tows out! XD

Considering Vet has to win at all costs, I'd expect him to go elbows out into turn 1. He'll no doubt have the greatest straight line speed advantage but he'll have to pass a Merc and a Bull who will both have tows. Maybe something like Spa where Ocon was on the inside but now it's Vet. Should be really exciting.

Does Charles have enough days to take the record at Melbourne?
