That Haas though made some impressive time. However I still think we are much faster than them in general.

First laps are good... Time to put everything together and make it into Q3.

Very surprised with the pace and Norris seems to have find a very nice rhythm.

Yeah, the POU update seems to be helping, but still we lose a lot of time in the slow corners compared to Merc and Red Bull.

Still, mighty impressive performance, with Norris going from Strength to Strength.

Tremendous, big gap to the front, but we are pushing on as 4th fastest car on most tracks and Norris is growing more and more. Great qualifying on a track we didn't have high hopes on :)

P7 and P8, great result in a track that even getting into Q3 was supposed to be a challenge.

If the team is really getting on top of their slow speed corner deficit, they could look at the second half of the season with optimism.

The points are tomorrow, but with track position been very important at this track and the team’s rivals out of the top 10 to start the race, it gives the team the potential to stretch their lead for 4th.

Mclaren compromised their starting tyres to be in Q3 ( soft instead of mediums) will run shorter first stint). Hopefully they can use those tyres or have a SC early in the race.
Always find the gap then use it.

yes big gap its why we must take risks in the concept of the next car to close the gap cause we are very far right now from the front
