    Even though it’s all pretty close I think Perez should have been higher up. Lawson’s result is impressive.

      I agree on Perez. Being .400 off Max is quite a bit at Monza.

      He’s consistently getting to Q3 now, but his qualifying still isn’t as good as it should be–at least not good enough to support the team if it were a competitive season.

        Albon being this close is a statement on both the Williams’ performance and of the relative performance between Perez and Albon. I’m definitely rooting for Alex

      I agree, Lawson is really making the most of his opportunity. If this continues, Ricciardo should stop eyeing at the RB seat and focus on keeping the AT one.

    I am super excited for Ferrari but know that the race strategy will somehow fumble this fantastic qualifying for the team. I’ve been hurt too many times.

      From what I understand they completely set the car up for quali, compromising their race-setup. And let’s be honest: they were not winning on Sunday anyway, so why not go for the glory on Saturday?

      Moral of the story: even if the tactics at Ferrari are outstanding (I’m kind of proud that I was able to type that without actually laughing), they are not winning tomorrow.

    Can you please edit the title to also contain the year and the gp?

      God I swear that happens every time. You start feeling good about a driver and swap for them and then they have a disaster of a weekend
