What a lap from Kimi. He’s settling in brilliantly. Great bold move from Mercedes to get him signed up. Many questions were raised about dropping Hamilton but it’s really paying off.

Time to drop Tsunoda

Kimi really was on it today. He looked close enough to Russel in Q1, was fastest in Q2 and then THAT lap in Q3, wow. Good to have a new pole sitter then.
What I am completely flabbergasted about though is that Max is not even being investigated for not only impeding Norris (who then backed out of his lap, but he was through anyway), but Stroll as well (for whom it did mean he didn’t get through to Q2) and then with his own Teammate as well, leading to Tsunoda not even getting a lap started.

it’s fake mate. Listening to Zak you might even get the impression the guys let Antonelli take pole. George didn’t even challenge at the end of the session.
Verstappen wrecked his own teammate, Stroll and probably at least one other during qualifying, and nothing.
It’s FAKE. And the Stewards are clowns.

Typically Miami. Just like last year when Red Bull forgot how to win races almost all the time, cause of curbs.
