Cheeky there from the top four
SS after all for the race

It's not cheeky, Brundle was being a moron. If they do a time on a harder compound then going into the first run in Q3 they haven't used the softest compound for like 25-30 minutes. If they want the best Q3 they want more knowledge about track conditions on the softest compound so they go out, get a feel and slow down before the line. They were never out trying to trick the others to do a lap on the other tire, they were all out to feel out the track. Thing is this year with Ferrari competitive they've all done it for hte last half a season unless the harder compound is actually way too slow.

Also seemed to me that Vettel went all 4 tires off in T19 but didn't get his time deleted.
 
Hamilton's performance level and consistency have been phenomenal this year. It hasn't affected Ferrari's performance, but I think it very much has affected Vettel. Every time he makes what might otherwise be a small mistake, Hamilton's been there to capitalise and pick up the extra points. He's been relentless.

Another pole to rub salt into the wounds already inflicted.
 
Hamilton consistently 0.3 faster than his teammate when it matters. Without him, Ferrari would have walked it.
 
Hamilton is just damn good. But yeah, tomorrow is going to be tough for him. Kimi starting on ultras can control or run away with it, he’s fast here.

Also lol at the clip from earlier “go left, because max is on the right”. Missed that earlier, genuine LOL.
 
Hamilton is not going to have it easy tomorrow. Kimi is bound to get by at the start. Then it’ll come down to strategies.


Depends, Kimi has some really bad starts and some really good ones. I can see him jumping him though with the better tire but maybe Ham getting him with slipstream on the back straight. We'll see.

Decent qualifying, seems like Ferrari fixed something on their car and either Kimi has stepped up his game or Vettel is off form judging by the gap today and in recent races.
 
And without Vettel. Hamilton Has been imperious, but Vettel's ball dropping has handed it to him.

Alonso would have walked this season if he was better at picking teams.

Why are you so certain Alonso would beat Hamilton? He didn't when they both had the same car, and that was a raw and inexperienced Hamilton.
 
Watching Max barge his way through the field should be good - IF the drivers actually try and race him.

I have this odd feeling that Hamilton and Kimi are going to tangle at T1 - no damage but they slow each other and Bottas sails through.
