Oh what a fight the first Qualifying of 2021 was !! I was on the edge of my seat literally watching it🤣.
MAX is on pole! Got to give it to him he deserves it massively, he topped all the time sheets of free practice as well as bringing the fight to Lewis whenever he topped his time in qualifying too. Follows him is both the Mercedes, and I am prepared to see the fight tomorrow👀
A team I am shocked at is Ferrari, they have obviously sorted out their problems last year and improved quite a bit, however I don’t think I should be so quick to judge as it is only the first race weekend out of 23.
Somebody I do have to mention is Tsunoda, his obviously a rookie but you wouldn’t think it how he drives the Alpha Tauri, he is on fire!!🔥 He is starting 13th on the gird however I think thats good for his first quali!
Mr Saturday (George Russell) remains Mr Saturday as he out qualifies his team mate once again and starts 15th on the grid. I do feel like Williams have improved since last year and I hope to see them in the points at some point this year.
One person I am gutted about is Vettel, his starting P18 on the grid tomorrow and thats because of a yellow flag as Mazepin spins in Q1 and messes up his lap, which is obviously unfortunate but its racing at the end of the day, however the real results are tomorrow!
My predictions for the podium tomorrow is P1- Hamilton P2- Verstappen and P3- Gasly. I would like to see Tsunoda in the points and also see the two McLaren boys be in the top 10!
