SO disappointing. P4 was well within reach. We need to improve our Saturday execution

I don’t know what happened in the last sector, but Lando was going well in his final lap until then... The track lost some time it seems too.

P7 and P9 isn’t ideal behind both Ferrari’s, but a long race ahead.

Tomorrow is when points are given!

Just poor again.
Lando won’t be in the top 3 drivers on the grid if he continues these quali balls ups

Not too bad, let's see if we get off well from the line. Plenty of opportunity to get ahead tomorrow.

One less than brilliant session doesn't deserve that, surely?

Poor final run from both. Work to do tomorrow.
Ricci not even had a chache to do a final lap. Total mess from strategy guys.👎👎

I don't know what gets to Lando in Q3, at least P5 was in the bag here today. And with Daniel missing the flag entirely ... what sort of calculations were they doing.

I wouldn’t say one, it’s more like the last 3 Q3s have been weak

Why did he not start the lap?

Never mind, I see now.

I have no idea what happened again in that last run. If this keeps going we should use fresh softs on the first run instead of the second. It's a pity. We have a faster car than the midfield competition and performance like this doesn't suit the team.

So disappointing. Especially knowing that the car had potential for more. It wasn't that big of a deal in previous races, but you can't overtake in this fkin track. Gotta hope for miracles tomorrow, or Ferrari might jump them for P3.

I wouldn’t mind if it’s a one off. But, it’s been a running theme for Lando, even from last year. This year, it’s the 4th Q3 out of 4, where he didn’t extract the maximum.

For once, I wish the team would put him on fresh tyres for the first run #-o

I get it that we are all pretty passionate about F1 and the team... But, the amount of negativity after a bad session after the best start to a season from the team seems unjustified.

Suddenly Lando can’t be trusted in Q3? Wow.
