Shame about the Qualifying record getting broken today that‘s been going on since Silverstone 24

But the diffference is too much for such a short track. Maybe Alonso has an off weekend and Stroll has that Senna esque weekend :D

So Stroll was likely on high engine mode and low fuel the whole weekend. Q3 will be very difficult

Or AMs don't like high temperature. Lance was competitive in all three FPs.
Only difference is unusually high temperatures today; margins are so thin on this track. Merc is also struggling.

FP’s mean nothing compared to qualifying. That’s when it counts

There is no way RB is faster then Merc; look at Lawson beating both Merc. High temperatures screwed up lot of teams. Lance is a last driver on the grid to adjust the driving style in changing conditions.

Temperatures are the same for everybody it doesn’t change anything. Alonso delivered and Lance didnt. End of

Alonso almost made Q3. 11th is the maximum. Bring on the upgrades in Silverstone! This race we will be lucky to get a point.

My post was not intended to criticise Stroll. But the fact that he left the garage very early in qualifying was not a good sign that they thought they were feeling highly competitive.

Alonso narrowly missed out on Q3. Not too bad

I guess they weren’t able this weekend to hit the sweetspot of the car. Bit underwhelming.

The car doesn’t have a sweet spot. It’s still a dog until it receives a proper update

I doubt they spent the 3 free practices on low fuel and high engine mode. Probably we suffer high temperatures on this track. Anyways points will be given tomorrow, let's hope for a good fight.

I think back to Alonso saying top 3 result before Zandvoort and I’m seriously excited that Aston can actually deliver a substantial McLaren esq update that transforms their season. BRING IT ON

stroll is just very good at austria. 3 tenths on alonso isn't a fluke
Want to rephrases this ? Did you just get taken by the GOAT toying with Stroll ?
