The Raikkonen 'incident' was just rather poor awareness but the Sirotkin one was potentially dangerous.
On a more important note, great job by both the Sauber drivers. That lap by Leclerc was top notch.

The officials appeared to be being needlessly provocative, the clown standing in front of the car should have been well aware that time was absolutely critical in the situation and he was just standing around being deliberately obstructive, the cone was obviously deliberately left in front of the scales too, it is usually out the way when the selected car is signaled onto the scales. Somebody need to ask why this situation even arose. This smacks of just deliberately trying to ruin Vettel's qualifying and would apply to this situation no matter who was selected!
This was just plain poor from the officials!
