    Yep Lewis owes Alonso a big thank you there. Norris’s mistake was costly, not great under pressure he is.

    Might have been a case that he’s not used to being in the lead anymore and the pressure got to him, moved too far left and onto the kerbing according to Rosberg. He was never going to keep Max behind him anyway.

    Decent race that, wouldn’t have bothered getting up at this hour for a practice session. I’ve no issue with Sainz getting his elbows out against Leclerc, hard racing as mentioned earlier.

    Nico Rosberg is slowly but surely turning into Sandi Toksvig.

    Sky sabotaging Crofty’s efforts not to provide any spoilers for this morning’s Sprint Race, by displaying the current, post sprint race driver standings, literally moments after he said there would be no spoilers.

    Yuki also not doing well in qualifying this race.

    I didn't spot why a lot of them didn't have banker laps earlier in the session. Hamilton disaster

    Did Tsunoda get caught by the yellow flag for Sargeant?

    Nice one, Sainz managed to get the car going again so presumably he’s not out of qualifying yet. .

    Not sure. Good to see Ricciardo get a bit more from the car for once.

    Great end to qualifying there with 2nd place swapping with each driver crossing the line. Alonso with a cracking lap, Perez did well to slot into 2nd but nobody troubling Max.

    Ferrari struggling for some reason.

    Ignoring Max fantastic end to qualifying, 6 changes to second place in a row gutted for Piastri as he must thought he was flying

    Perez has upped his results in qualification so that seat should be safe for next season.

    Red Bull in even more control than they were last year.

    Hamilton was lucky Alonso held everyone up for so long in the sprint, I'd say 3 more laps and Perez would have caught him.

    That was some great racing on lap 15/16 for the fight for 3rd. The Perez move on Sainz and Alonso was great.

    Hard to see anything but a RedBull one two. It's seem like Hamilton has no fight in him at all and blaming the car but interesting to hear Russell claiming the cars are the same

    the midfield battle will be good here, everyone was fairly tight together, the last podium spot could be anyone’s assuming red bull (checo) makes a mess to ruin a 1,2.

    Talk of AM appealing quali result due to Sainz causing a red flag and continuing?

    That was a great qualifying session. A classic. Loved it. Only way it could have been better is if Piastri had of done a Sainz but done it worse than Sainz just to wreck his car.

    Bottas seems to have finally found his mojo again too which is good. Would be happy to see him get a point or two in the race if Sauber do not fu-ck up there pit stops again.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    I thought if you get the car back to pits under its own power you can continue in the session ?
