Great job by Sainz, Lewis and Nasr.
Poor start for Bottas and Kvyat.

Vettel only 3/100's faster than Raikkonen.

I'm supporting Nasr this year. He's got my lucky number is why.

I believe vettel didin't even attempt a final run. He's got 2 laps on his tires, but both of those were outlaps.

Hamilton to have 2011 vettel style year? We've seen what confidence can do to a man.

Jeez.

I predicted 1:26.385 yesterday, but after Q1 I didn't think they'd get near.

Stonking lap.

Impressed by Sainz, and I'm really glad to see Ferrari in the battle for the final podium.

Mercedes superiority is crushing.
Tough fight for best of the rest.

Red Bull barely better than STR and not quite in the Williams x Ferrari scrap.

Nice Q for Sainz and Nasr.

Possible. Rosberg did run into some trouble, though. If he had a flawless Q, I think he would have been closer.

Well there you go, as expected.

All these deluded people thinking the others had caught up can now have a reality check.

It was never going to be anything but complete destruction for merc.

There was a thread about 4 months ago asking what the most dominant car of all time was. I said it will be the W06 and I think that was a fair guess.

I don't even like merc or their drivers, but credit where it's due.

Looks like the interesting stuff will be happening around P3-P6 this season.

Great last lap from Massa!
