2024 Qatar Grand Prix
- Horner ‘believes 100%’ Verstappen did not threaten to crash into Russell
- Russell and Verstappen cast new light on clash which triggered explosive row
- Hamilton’s puncture not caused by mirror debris – Mercedes
- Another start-to-finish win shows Qatar GP could be F1’s most processional race
- “Am I dead last now?” Unheard radio from Hamilton’s disastrous Qatar GP

Surprised the Ferrari drop in pace SQ3. The Mclaren looks quick and the RedBull looks like the 4th fastest car, once again showing what Max achieved this season is just incredible.

Once again? When was the last time it was 4th fastest? It’s been the quickest or close second fastest car many, many more times than it’s been 4th!

Yeah, Max won with a Sauber disguised with the Red Bull livery. But the British media bias and etc etc etc zzzzzz

You people surprise me continually with you black and white knee jerk reactions. As has been the case all season there’s a difference between quali pace and race pace if the redbull. But keep pandering

Only read the result but can’t imagine the viewing figures being high for this one. Obligatory get rid of sprints.

What part of the “we” in “we made mistakes”didn’t you get? Checo’s driving great. It’s only his 7th Q3 exit this season I believe.
