Great to see all the times so tight

Maybe he's playing the long game (sainz), only used 2 sets of softs to norris's 3?

Didn't take long for the graphics to break

Pole is going to be well into the 1:20s. The track is improving so fast.

[freddytin]

Seems Kimi has slipped into the shadows.

[PhillipM]

Well, I guess Norris will be a happy chap tonight regardless!

[JonChalk]

Norris 9th, ahead of both Renaults. Less than a tenth off Kimi in 8th. Pretty good.

[Nickp82]

Norris doing a great job so far

[Matthen]

There is a McLaren in Q3 :O

[l354uge]

All rookies beat thier teammate, impressive

[Rick_1138]

[JonChalk]

Leclerc's piling the pressure onto Vettel already.....and guess what? Seb's off the track.....

Looks like Alonso might not be the only person regretting their decision for this season!

Have Ferrari stopped sandbagging yet? If a Haas outqualifies one of them I'll be gob smacked.

Feel sorry for George Russell to have found himself in another dog of a Williams he's a better driver than that
