Christ that onboard with stroll just before he crashed was insane to have timed right there for the accident.

Looked like he was really struggling to get the car to cooperate the last few corners

Big crash Lance Stroll in the wall ! His left front wheel flew over the track . Norris was very lucky there ....

And Yuki Tsunoda is P1 in QF1 ! What ?!?!

Reuters quoting Marko as telling Austria’s OE24 website: “It wasn’t meant that way. I meant that a Mexican has a different mentality than a German or a Dutchman. But who knows, maybe it’s controlled.”
Marko issued a statement apologizing over the weekend and Perez says he has spoken to the 80-year-old, and that there are no lingering issues between the two.

Good for Helmut Marko, Now lets get back to motor racing.

The derogatory remark by Helmut Marko about Perez was definitely inappropriate.

Helmut Marko seems to have forgotten his F1 history.

Pedro Rodriguez (Mexico)
Ricardo Rodríguez (Mexico)
Emerson Fittipaldi (Brazil)
Ayrton Senna (Brazil)
Nelson Piquet (Brazil)

The walls at this track ! The QF looks like a cage fight ...

#SingaporeRatTrap !

///M Power-Belgium · 09-16-2023, 10:07 AM

MAX is P10 in QF2 , with just 2 min. to go...

It's looking bad for the Red Bull's !

Checo lost it ...and locked up in very strange way ...

And MAX is out of Q2 !

MAX : I'm shocked . The cars balance is unpredictable !
MAX just left the scene ...

Both Red Bull's are out !

GuidoK · 09-16-2023, 10:11 AM

Wow, RB not in Q3!

They have very very big balance problems...
It's not looking good for tomorrow. no setup changes and a circuit where overtaking is very difficult...

I wonder what they're doing wrong.

And both Haas cars and LAW in his AT in Q3....
I guess anything can happen

Aero rule changes beginning this week??

Yes I think so too, but what?
If it's an aero thing, that can give even bigger problems at the next race as Suzuka is very much an aero circuit.

GuidoK · 09-16-2023, 10:31 AM

Wow, SAI and RUS on the first row.
SAI-RUS-LEC all 3 superclose!

3798j · 09-16-2023, 10:31 AM

Q3...Spectacular!...So impressive.

Car-Addicted · 09-16-2023, 10:36 AM

Not to worry, likely that Ferrari pit strategists will screw the pooch tomorrow.

Yes . It was about the flexible wings . Aston had to change the front wing .

Red Bull got an FIA investigation , it was also about the RB19 floor .
It's not clear yet , that Red Bull had to change things .
Nothing has been confirmed by the Red Bull Team yet..

Great job Toto Wolff !

The QF :

P2 RUS
P3 Charlie
P4 NOR
P5 LEW
P6 MAG

Crazy qualifying. Just praying for a Lando podium.

That Stroll crash was not fun to see. Happy to see him walk out. I wonder how pissed dad is….

I hope he wins. He deserves it. He's still without a GP win.

June 2023: "Inside Line: When will Papa & Son Stroll have ‘that’ talk?"
https://www.grandprix247.com/2023/06...ave-that-talk/

"David Coulthard finally had the balls to call it. When will Aston Martin stop making excuses for Lance? (...) When do the Strolls sit down for a proper Papa-Son heart-to-heart and admit that Lance is not good enough for F1? And give the seat to a deserving and talented youngster of which there are many on the horizon right now. Junior can go spearhead an Aston Martin Hypercar project, or DTM team or whatever he wants and money can buy, but how long can underperformance be rewarded with a seat among supposedly the 20 best race drivers in the world?"

Dad and his $$ go where son goes. Who would take over funding the team?

Artemis · 09-16-2023, 11:07 AM

Verstappen had an off-day.

OK, the RB19 struggles with this circuit, but it seems as if Verstappen's mind was drifting somewhere else during the qualies: 3 summons !
