Damn, as I was talking sh*t about him, Max gets outqualified in a competitive session for the first time since god knows when. Max was so uncomfortable though. This jumping thing that he has been complaining about since last year seems to have bothered him a lot here. That trip to the gravel might have caused some damage too, but good on Yuki for being there to be honest. It wasn't an easy session to do good at.
I still believe team has been holding him back .it was not a coincidence that he beat all his last 3 teammates , he shouldn't be slower than vcarb boys who he kept under control in a faster car it doesn't make sense

I think Max didn't have much reference and had to go cautious after he understeered into the gravel trap on his initial lap.

Marko said they went for more front end on Verstappen's car, more rear end on Tsunoda. It was the drivers' choice.

The pace is just not there on the softs.
I fear that will be still an issue for the race quali.

Yuki!!!! Maybe time to look at Yuki's set-up for once. He's not bouncing through the corners. Is he still on the new floor spec?
That's what they usually do his setup was adopted in Austin and Mexico. It's not any driver setup ,the engineers experiment with two different setup and choose the best.
I don't think they are running the same set-up today. I just looked at both onboards and Max looks like he's vibrating through the corners whereas Yuki's ride is really smooth and responsive. They've gone in the wrong direction on Max's side, again.

Verstappen error. Yuki is not the benchmark lol. Pace was there, driver wasn't today.
Call a spade, a spade.

Most points to get in the race, so lets see. They can fine tune the set up for race qualy and race. Good to see Yuki up front.

On Dutch commentary they thought that the tea tray was damaged during the run off in the gravel.

No one said he is all his want is for redbull to stop silly games and let him do his work properly so that we can ascertain were he stand among other top drivers including his teammate.

Bad setup too on Max's car. He said in the interview the sprint race will be bad and wants changes for qualy

Marko said the pace on softs is still the biggest issue, as in FP1.
They were half a second behind, best case was maybe P4

Well all drivers make mistakes, we are all human. For tomorrow its absolutely crucial to finish ahead of Lando, otherwise the point gap will be too big. I will be back on the sunday and will see when we stand after the race. Cheers.

Maybe I am looking at it wrong, but that doesn't seem like it's damaged? It's just dirty from the gravel.
