Sainz put in a good banker. Leclerc needs to make it stick this run.

Streets are saying the rain will get heavier?

Q1 is over, but I'm worried if it continues into Q2. Edit: Q1 resuming at :22.

The excuses you all are making for what is supposed to be a generational talent and star driver are embarrassing at best.

Hamilton lacking some motivation after winning 7 titles/100+ races and having to fight for the occasional podium? Sure OK, I can see that. Leclerc isn't in that boat.
You’re comparing apple to oranges here at best.
I'm not. The example of Hamilton's frustration being similar to Leclerc's was being made above. I can understand Hamilton having trouble adjusting after over a decade of sustained success.

I don't understand "giving up" halfway through a season because your car isn't in a good place at the moment.
You’re referring that he never had or magically lost his skills. Did you considered the age difference in the equation?

Leclerc has shown that he can place a car in a position where it shouldn’t be in the first place and those were in seasons where all knew he didn’t have a chance for championship in the first place. The mistakes will do a toll on him as they did numerous times. Hamilton now experienced this with this era and its just less than 3 years already which is less from what Leclerc suffers.

It's inferring and no, I didn't do that. Like I said in a subsequent post, Leclerc isn't giving up. Just driving badly. People are projecting their feelings on to him. He'll recover.

Leclerc completely defeated on the radio. Just reporting a lot of understeer. Never seen him like this.

Carlos, manage to find something in Fp3, the car look good on one lap pace, what we miss all year. Hope to be fast even in race.

If he can't cope a sabbatical might be a good idea?

I think Leclerc has complained about understeer 3 times so far, even though they've been tweaking the car between sessions.

The FP2 mistake probably hurt a lot in finding the right setup since him and Sainz like such different things.

And terrible timing for the red flag...

Don't see Leclerc improving much here, rain is expected when the session resumes and the tires are stone cold by now. I groaned out loud when I saw the red flag in the middle of his lap.

Leclerc's first Q3 lap was really good, sad he couldn't get another in, I think he would've easily gone above Hamilton there. Happy that Sainz went out at least. Maybe something crazy will happen tomorrow and we'll get another podium.

0.4 off Verstappen is... not that greatest, however I didn't expect the car to suddenly compete with McLaren/RBR, so I'm not that disappointed either.

Perez underperforming is a huge let off for both Ferrari and Mercedes.

Again Leclerc completely silent after the quali. He is 100% done with this season. Tomorrow is going to be a disaster.

The car has tremendous amount of understeer from the onboards. If that is the case they will destroy both the front and the rear tyres tomorrow. Thankfully Mercedes --- up and Perez is the worst driver in F1 modern era.
