We'll see how close he gets to that in Q3.

Charlies Ferrari has almost snapped on him a few times this weekend. Hope he doesn't push too hard.

No need for that . Charlie is currently 0.5 sec. faster than MAX .

3 min. to go

M5Rick · 10-22-2022, 07:03 PM

Looks like Carlito takes pole with Max second and Checo ahead of HAM in real time grid.

That's right, RB took a gamble with Max's tyres which didn't quite pay off, the race is tomorrow and Max has said he'll try to make Dietrich proud.

As usual Ferrari takes the pole . I'm surprised this time It's Carlito .

Carlito said : We know that Red Bull is stronger in the race .
But tomorrow we will give everything ...

Another surprise is that Charlie didn't got the pole with the stronger 2023 PU/Spec.
Both Ferrari drivers were complaining about the wind ..

IMHO. Tomorrow It's all about race craft , race strategy and OC the tyres ...

Congrats to Carlito and Ferrari !

RIP Dietrich Mateschitz.
A great loss for motorsports
Lots of drivers owe their F1 career to him, also because of their long and active junior team to boost upcoming talent and give them a real chance in motorsports (VET, SAI, VER, RIC, GAS to name a few).

Interesting qualifying, SAI sure ran a great pole lap.
VER had a bad sector 3, but overall speed looks great for the RB car. So it'll be an interesting race tomorrow.
Also a very good performance for STR to get that Aston Martin well in the top 10.
It will be interesting to see what ALO can do for Aston Martin next year. This year ALO keeps showing that he's still very quick.

Sure . When a Ferrari takes the pole , MAX wins the race .
At least that's what we see the whole season ...

If Ferrari ran today with a 100% qualifying set-up as usual ,in the race the Ferrari tyres will be gone after 7-8 laps ..

Doesn't look like the upgrades to the W13 made any notable or significant improvements.

M3WC · 10-22-2022, 10:15 PM

Bravo Carlos!

OG Shark · 10-22-2022, 10:30 PM

Haven’t watched the replays yet - but did VER take two warm up laps on his final Q3 run? Would be very interesting if he did.
