That’s a pretty big gap, even though it’s only Q1. Interesting they haven’t replayed Verstappen’s last corner with a few questions over whether he kept it on the track. Anyone seen it? Was he all a ok?

I've come here specifically for this reason. Wondered if they'd be some screen grabs of it

edit* and 1 minute later and it doesn't matter.

Immaterial now with the improvement but I can only imagine he must have been fine with the first one.

Oh come on. Red flag for that? Just bloody VSC it. It’ll take moments to pick that up and just replace it at the end of the session.

Yeah, its so frustrating. VSC it, then everyone will pit as no point in circulating under VSC. Takes 30 seconds to get a man out there to pick it up and get back in. Then remove the VSC.

No power in hell or on earth can make RBR win this race. It's simply not happening.

Cue Horner leaving the pit wall briefly to make a Faustian bargain!
