Not a good time for Norris. He has to up his game as Sainz constantly beats him by a large margin.
lost 0.1 seconds, the score in qualifying 7-4 in favor of Lando

How did Sainz pull that lap. Is there some magic switch that goes on and off? Can someone explain to me what is going on with that car?

8 different cars in the top 10 says it all! Carlos will need to pull another one out the bag in Q3, P6 to P10 could literally be any combo.

Wonder what happened that Norris was .7 down. I can't imagine track rubbering made that much of a difference between the end of Q1 and the beginning of Q2.

Norris said he didn't put it together when it mattered. Oh well.

Finally, everyone knows that Red Bull is a joke and Max Verstappen is overrated.

They are struggling to keep the tyres in the window, like everyone else. Must have just hit the sweet spot that lap for whatever reason.
