Crash mentioned.

MadYaker

Is that car fixable by tomorrow?

Russell is enjoying himself out there in what seems a good car at this track.

Both Red Bulls on the bubble. **** was that Max impeding? Yep. Crap.

McFly85

Looks like a certain penalty for Max there.

You would imagine that’s a slam dunk.

If it is and there’s grid slots at play, I wonder would Red Bull be tempted to take a whole new set of engine components and a new gearbox.

This can't go much worse for Redbull can it?

Andrew76

Jesus could both Bulls be out?

Both redbulls depart at Q2.

PsychoPete

That RedBull looks like an absolute handful to drive

Horner asking Newey there if they still get paid for Q1.

Well now they may as well! Lawson knock him out!!

KillerShamrock

na na, na na na na, hey hey hey good bye

This is it

LOL

Itssoeasy

Christ it’s turned into a mare for red bull.

Andrew76

Wow now that’s a shock. Track specific or also related to those flexi wing rule changes.

Faugheen

Wow.

Fair balls to Liam Lawson btw. He’s hopped into an F1 car and has got so comfortable in such a short period of time.

PsychoPete

Alonso for pole!

Hopefully they can sort something out with the car, they always tend to have a good race car as they say. Where will Max be starting on the grid though?

Q1 should be a great shoot out here. I am going to go for Russell over the Ferrari pair.

KillerShamrock

Oh the child is tossing those toys outta the pram, even tossed him self out... ah well he will still win 😂

Cool_CM

Hahahaha 😂

McFly85

Tomorrow is already set up to be the most interesting race of the year, regardless of Q3.

Andrew76

Well surely there goes the winning streak. Max will defo get a penalty for impeding so that will put him further down the grid, no chance of a win on this track unless something bizarre happens.

Itssoeasy

max qualifies 11th but there’s not a hope he stays there.

Through to Q3:

1. Sainz, Ferrari

2. Russell, Mercedes

3. Alonso, Aston Martin

4. Magnussen, Haas

5. Norris, McLaren

6. Hulkenberg, Haas 

7. Leclerc, Ferrari 

8. Hamilton, Mercedes

9. Ocon, Alpine

10. Lawson, AlphaTauri

7 different teams! It's going to be fun!

mr_edge_to_you

Sainz has been brilliantly consistent for Ferrari.

PsychoPete

Singapore is a bit of a bogey track for Verstappen, he's only had 2 podiums there since 2016

I know we have the anomaly of both Redbull cars being out, but Lawson outperforming Tsunoda here and getting his car into Q1 is some feat. Looking at where Alonso is too surely Stroll senior has to be under pressure soon to fill that seat with someone more deserving.

Trampas

Danny could be struggling to get his seat back

Andrew76

Russell v Sainz for pole I reckon, they’re both flying. Don’t bother letting Ricciardo back in the car, let Lawsen have the rest of the season I say. 😁
