What a lackluster qualifying by Alonso & Checo’s Q2 elimination was also surprising.

first time ever i would like this to be a sprint weekend lol
Red Bull started completely on the back foot, but with proper time to experiment they’re back to their usual form.

Much like last season – Perez is starting to go off the boil again. The only way he’ll be dropped is if the constructors go awry. Hoping mclaren will go for it at the start.
