I was just wondering why there was such a big difference between them, haha
Tsunoda would’ve been 6th with his deleted lap, ahead of Bottas. He’s doing a great job
Agree
Yeah he started the year really well then he had some struggles and now he’s back on it and I’m loving it. Can’t wait to see what he can do next year
@@Jacobbunt honda is trying stuff with their engine on the alpha tauris so they can use their findings on the red Bull. Probably tsunoda and gasly got a decent pace upgrade these couple of gp's. Nevertheless very nice final races for tsunoda and ofcourse gasly has been phenominal in the alpha this year. Would be interesting to see how they evolve next year.
Yeah. He beat Gasly. Hope he's gonna score points tomorrow
It was about time. Still, he was blisteringly fast today.
Imagine that feeling...8 times..the greatest of all time!..or winning your first while being the guy that denied that! Epic either way!!

What a weekend from Yuki!!! I'm interested to see what he can do next year! He is soo young and there is potential there.
People have unfairly written him off like hes been there for years. He's shown that the only thing he's lacking is experience
Right? He's got the pace and he just needs more experience, i always hate that people are comparing him with gasly because comparing a rookie with a driver in his 4th year (gasly) is just wrong in the first place, i'm sure he'll fighting toe to toe with him during the last half of the next season
People also forget that while Gasly competed in gp2 for 3 years, Yuki has only competed in f3, f2 for a year each
Yeah, he was 3rd in the f2 championship in his debut year and still people bash him by comparing him with Gasly
such a shame he went wide on his first lap! he would've been p6 with the time he set, ahead of bottas!
Oh, so people getting annoyed that an inexperienced driver taking up a spot that could have been given to a more experienced, mature with decent pace driver as well is wrong? You guys are being fanboys right now. While I think Tsunoda is much faster than Gasly, he had shown impatience many times that caused him in the race or qualifying. Maldonado was very fast as well, but then do people remember his pace or his reckless driving? I hope Tsunoda gets better, and I think he will, but dismissing legitimate criticism is pretty ridiculous. Also, don’t forget that Max, Vettel, Hamilton and many others hit the ground running. That’s the expectation placed upon a rapidly promoted driver. If you can jump formulas like that, you are expected to be a superstar in the making.
What a lap from Max, makes up for last week’s qualifying!
The main role is Perez's 4th position on the grid, that is the championship decider!
That should have been Saudi Arabia too...

ye that was cringey. i've seen lewis dip his nose into corners, going sideways in funky overtakes, dozens of times.
He doesn't mean only sideways or only forward. He means if you want to accelerate forward as fast as possible then you need to make sure there is no sideways acceleration using up the traction budget of your tires. It's not inherently as simple as you think

im more worried about Perez and Hamilton, perez on soft could be quicker then Hamilton on medium towards the start. i think they are gonna clash, wheelbanging or crash. Verstappen wants to stay out of trouble and Bottas can't take verstappen out now, so he is no threath at the start.

Can't wait for the race tomorrow! We have seen an incredible season so far, as F1 fans we have been spoiled this year! As a Dutchie I say, may the best man win the championship, but I cheer a little bit more for Max ;) Btw goodluck with the nerves, everybody will need it
Unfortunately I fear that it might be over for Max because of that lockup that ruined his medium tyres, he starts on soft which means 2 pitstops which mean losing 25 seconds at the minimum on Hamilton... I swear if he loses the championship because of a little lockup that ruined his only set of medium in q2 I honestly can't believe it, between this and the amount of unlucky races in the first half of the season, he should be 60 points ahead by now it's almost sad, he deserves to be champion
May the best car Win lol
My heart and nerves are shot already
@@mordor1779 Pit strategy is probably going to be soft > hards. With the colder temperatures, the softs could be used longer.
@@mordor1779 nah mate relax, remember a 2 stopper can be more beneficial than a 1 stopper. Look back at hungary 2019, france 2021. You can close a gap of 25 seconds in 15-20 laps with fresh tyres. He is at an advantage at the start and he is faster on race pace (data confirms this). So he can pull a gap on him during his first stint and because he is on a 2 stop he can basically push all the time. If he drives cleanly and passionately as we know him, he will take this home for us.
Norris on the softs could well be ahead of Hamilton into T1. This is going to be a spicy race, shame this season has to end.
Just remember the billionares also have to recive christmas toys , so they have something new to show us normal earthlings.
Maybe not t1 as it’s too short a run but the two straights after Lewis might be a sitting duck. Then again Lewis was still faster on mediums when Norris was on softs.
@@mercurialmiura6713 yeah especially cause Lando might have the fastest car in a straight line
Its not gonna happend, MC laren wil not even try to ruin Lewis race maybe help him. If Hamilton goes second în turn 1 only luck will made Verstappen campion, luck like jeddah and still wasnt enough with all The luck, soft will go off very fast, like 10-12laps,than he îs sitting duck like all other soft runers.
He is starting the race on mediums.
Hope the race lives up to the expectation of an amazing season! Honestly whoever wins the championship Max or Lewis deserves it!
Seems like a master strategy from RB to give Max a tow with Checo. But then you realize his second run in Q3 was on par, if not better than the first, but without a tow, up until he abandoned it.
Well did he abandon it? Doesn't look like it.
@@gridposition5769 he did obviously at the end.
what is a tow?
@@gridposition5769 yeah he lost 1.4second in the last sector only...from which angle it seems believable to you?😂😂

What a wild ride from this two, can't believe how much pressure they're feeling!
Well according to them... no pressure at all! :p

seems to be less than the pressure all the fans are experiencing lol
No pressure for Max. He has his whole carrier ahead to win championships. It's pressure for drs boy as it's probably his last chance to break Schumacher's record.

@@allena3430 I doubt Norris will be a hazard. Only way they get P3 in the constructors is if Mclaren gets a 1-2

** Only takes into account qualy results (not sprint races), grid penalties are not taken into account, only the qualy results.
Note : Hamilton's DSQ in Brazil is taken into account since it wasn't a grid penalty but a disqualification from a session, hence he started last in the sprint race and not in the actual race.
OCON 11- ALONSO 11
Gio was inedeed, underrated
@@soupe2000 ALO 11- OCON 10 BEFORE ABUDHABI QUALIFICATION.
AFTER THIS OCON 11- ALO 11
Man, the Red Bulls and Mercedes... You gotta feel for the championship contender's teammates. So unbelievably difficult to beat no matter what the circumstances are.
@@rekreator9481 he couldn’t get the points so 🤷♂️
Stunning Season, one of the best in history
* worst
I agree, this is one of the best seasons ever, if it isn't the best.
I think Merc has stayed with Its low downforce setup to maximize straight-line speed. But it looks like Redbull is having low downforce setup as well but still slightly faster on sweeping corners. Strategy and flags will play a big part of this race’s result. I’m excited to watch the live race.
this 2nd place is strategic, to push Max to use up his tires and pit early, so LH can drive longer to pit later and have fresher tires towards the end
@@tee4605 And Hamilton can't afford to manage his tire as well otherwise Max will pull away or Norris and Peres will catch up. Bottas is far down. How much longer can Lewis use his yellow.
Verstappen might also go for 2 stops with the red catching up to the slower white.
Anything can happen tomorrow.
@@beadsbangle7749 I could see Max going with a red-yellow-red strategy definitely, it could be a France type strategy that could be faster potentially, especially since the RB works best on softs and mediums, and the Mercedes working best on mediums and hards...
If there isn’t any SC and red flags, It will be nice to see how both teams plans will work out. I will lean more on a one stopper but who knows what’s gonna happen at race day. Lewis will not want to be in the middle of the pack and risk it. Soft runners early in the race are going to be buzzing bees in the first 10 laps. This track eats tyres (specially the fronts) a lot since it’s high speed.
Take 1 look at Lewis front wing and you can clearly see they run a high downforce setup for this track. Interesting because for the first time this season RB is quicker on the straights.
RedBull pulled an awesome trick. Perez played the team man. Mega. Awesome to see the race tomorrow. It would be mega and tire strategy
Great team work by Redbull, Checo what an amazing rare gunner to have. Mega job Perez.
I hope the repay him for a chance to go for a championship next coming season.
@@allena3430 it all depends in how much he learned this year with the car and the team. Looks promising.
@@allena3430 it's not like they stopped him from becoming a champion this season 🤷♂️. Fact is max is just faster
The “perfect” lap by Max. He did it at Jeddah too but sec 3 was bust. But he finally did this weekend. Even without Perez he was already up by 4ish tenths. The tow allowed him to just maintain the gap rather than loose time. Even his last lap was still fast enough for pole. That Redbull was definitely amazing to watch in Qualifying 3.
But… it’s the race I’m worried about Mercedes and Hamilton are very quick in the race so as someone who’s wanting Max to win fingers crossed. I do also hope Lando doesn’t interfere with Max and Ham. I’m sure he won’t but he doesn’t have anything to loose. But I doubt he’s got the race pace in the McLaren to keep up. Anyways tomorrow should be an interesting race.
Lando's a bit of a Hamilton fan and has been vocal about it. He won't sabotage but he'll definitely try to help Hamilton in any way he can.
Redemption after Jeddah
@@panchajanyadas7549 Like Alonso will help Max
Lose, not loose.
@@panchajanyadas7549 Stop spouting out cringe "facts"
I doubt any driver on the field would "help" either time and suspect all drivers would move to the side so not to intervene for either drive.
As a Max fan still I'm so happy for Tsunoda!
YES LANDOOOO🧡 well this qualifying was a rollercoaster of emotions with the season we had huh?🥶😂❤️
Looking forward to the end of this crazy season. no matter who will win i hope they try to keep it clean but still enjoyable for the fans. This one sure will be one for the history books!
Literally can’t wait for tomorrow between these incredible drivers Hamilton and verstappen
I have no idea who I want to win tomorrow but if I had to pick I’ll take max just so he can get his first championship
lets hope bro ! somthing diferent this year !
I'm on the opposite side of the spectrum, and I don't even like Lewis that much.
Don't you want to see Schumachers record broken?
Vamos pana Max a ganar la carrera y ser el campeón 🙌👏🙏😇👍💪🇻🇪 SOS el mejor y tu compañero checo.. viva México pues.
Tsunoda is on point atm! Great drive
Can’t wait for tomorrow’s race… may the best man win !!!
