Norris was pretty close to Gasly’s Sector 1 time in his last lap (aborted because of the Kubica accident)... My guess is that they haven’t really ramp them up in Q1
Norris was on a flyer, however the worry at the moment is whether they can get the front tyres up to temperature now the track temperatures are dropping - especially with the delay as well, you can see it was taking a few runs to get the tyres hot enough as it was already.
They might have to take 2 fast laps to set their best time... But, it is encouraging that they are at least in the mix.
But yes, temperatures dropping are an issue... Probably a positive is that one of the Renault’s and one of the Haas are already out and that should give them a chance to get into Q3.
