The Ferraris are extremely fast (over one fast lap)! as ususal ...

On the other hand : MAX was almost (1 sec.)! faster in the FP long runs !

Nothing really changed ...

It should sort itself out in the race, we know one lap wonders usually won't go the distance

LEW and Checo are knocked out in QF2 !

Both Williams are in QF3

[GuidoK]

OMG PER outin Q2!
Just sitting in the garage, RB thinking he'd make it?
strange decision not using the track evolution. Or has he a problem with the car.
Or was saving tyres thàt important?

But PER is again super lucky....Hammy also couldnt get into Q3 (but he was on the track)

Hammy said he couldn't go faster as Russell bounces up.

Max is trying to brake later but the few run off areas are into a wall!

He really should try it in a Marvel super heroes production

[GuidoK]

Very good qualifying from Ferrari. Too bad SAI won't be on the front row, he really deserved that spot.
Max was so lucky his banker lap was good. and that others didn't push him to p4 or even lower.
I think Max had trouble getting his tyres in the right window. The RB is just too efficient with tyrewear.

Back on screen!
Chas 1 and Max 2 for tomorrow with Carlo pushed to 12th, he'll be fighting with LEW for those all important constructor points.

That banker lap saved Max with RUS just 8/1000 behind him.

That's the isssue at this track . No grip in the slippery braking zones .

The 'lighter Ferraris are always extremely fast over one lap , with less of fuel in the fuel tank .
Tomorrow in the race it will be otherwise with a load of 110 liters of fuel , this means + 110 KG ! (depends of the air temps)
Of course .That's the same for the RB19 , but the RB19 'balance with the 110 KG of fuel is superior over the Ferraris .
And let's keep in mind , Max had outstanding starts in the last 2 races .
That's why I think Max will get P1 in T1.

Too bad for Sainz with his 10P grid penalty , thanks to Wolff ! What a piece of SH•• !
Wolff voted for the 10P grid penalty from Sainz ! It's a shame for motorsports !
Congrats for Charlie and Ferrari

The QF :

1-Charlie
2-Sainz (10P grid penalty)!
3-MAX
4-Rus
5-Gas
6-Alb
7-Sar
8-Bot
9-Mag
10-Alo

My prediction for the race ?
A dog-fight from MAX vs Charlie ...'

Viva ....Vivaaaaaa....Las Vegassssssssssssssssssssss.......' !!!

Sure .Spot on ! That's it . And that does miracles in the race (as usual)
Of course , MAX's tyre management is from another planet ...'

Let's see what happens in this race after 15 laps !
Of course : For the long stints in the race , It's actually like a shot in the unknow at this track with his extreme low temps. (no data)!
