Yeah, and bunting, smoke and mirrors, and endless hyperbole, probably a concert too, but sadly no girls or racing!

No likely penalty though as he has a serviceable one 'in the bank'. According to Horner.

I certainly hope not, the RBRs are really taking it to Ferrari and Merc. However, as we all know practice doesn’t always tell the full story

I understand it's an hydraulics problem.

It doesn’t look like we’ll get that if Max is at the front.

Both Red Bull drivers looking quick, as was expected really. This will be Verstappen's final chance to break the record of the youngest ever F1 pole sitter. A record that will probably never ever be broken due to the new F1 licence rules.

I'm guessing there will some sort of issue for Ricciardo come qualifying. Or, Ricciardo's tyre pressures will be 'fine tuned' to suit the... opportunity??

I agree. On performance alone he surely deserved it, but in a way I'm glad Ricciardo got it instead.

There's two more rounds, but there isn't two more opportunities for his RB14. It cannot compete with the SF71H or the W09 for pole position at Brazil and Abu Dhabi.

Simples.

This was his best chance, but it's not a done deal yet. Suppose it rains in Brazil during qualifying? Or rain-dry? We've seen Hulkenberg on pole there, too...

I'm not buying that conspiracy theory.

I have to admit though that Horner was not as thrilled as he could/should have been.
I'm quite sure he has a personnal preference at the moment, but I'm equally convinced that he won't "sabotage" his other driver just to obtain a pole for Max.

After all, he want to maximize the chances to get a win tomorrow. Even if he would prefer Max to win it, a win for Daniel would still be better than no win at all.

That was a clean start, 4 wide down the straight. Hamilton looked like he would take the lead but Verstappen had the line into Turn 1. Looks like Alonso went off at Turn 1.
