Great job Perez on improving so much!

And I believe track limits with a gravel bed a car width next to the track should not be judged
True, but it's still 0.7s ..
Perez in SQ set lap on used tires so it's not as big gain as it looks.

“I did a pretty good lap, not amazing,” said Norris. “It felt a bit trickier today for wind and conditions, and we dropped back relatively closer to Merc and Ferrari than yesterday.

"I did a better lap yesterday, so there are one or two tenths from my side [missing] but not enough to trouble Max. They were way quicker than we could have done.”

Lando is the only one who didn't improve from SQ to Q... If he had nailed it RB20 wouldn't have looked so dominant, the gap is probably 0.1

I also expect Lando to play the "we didn't have the pace" card everytime he doesn't win, being honest about his car speed got him nowhere.
I learn from the mistakes of people who take my advice...

It’s almost like George has more power than Hamilton.

Lol Merc f****d Lewis.....

They had pace to at least be in better contention for P2 and he had to sit behind George just so George can finish in whatever position is in front of Lewis, then the team erroneously tell him he needs to give a place to the guy behind them and now they can only go as fast as George can go, which was slower than Lewis could have gone.

Been away from the forum last few weeks. Any reason why the gap between Max and the rest has gotten bigger again? Track suits the red bull more?

Well this is unsurprisingly disappointing. As for Max, they aced the setup + he’s world class
