Anything that injects a little unpredictably into the back end of the season is fine by me. Likely penalty incoming for VER too.

MODERATORS
Possibly two or three. Could you imagine a three place penalty times three?? Max in 20th position?? That would be a bad day.
The car is the same as last week.
You have to remember that this is a track that verstappen really doesn't like: last year's race at Singapore was also his worst.
Usually verstappen drives ~3 tenths faster than Perez, which, if he did that this week, would also put him up there....
IMO this is less of a case that the car is worse and more that verstappen isn't able to get 100% from his car.
I donโt think itโs the flexibility of the wings (or lack of it) that was the issue. They would have benefited primarily at top speed, and thereโs not much at Singapore thatโs top speed dependent (see Williams). The Red Bull car, although very quick, has been great in cornering and today he couldnโt hook it up in the corners. I think they just had the wrong setup for the car and couldnโt get it figured out. Red Bull should have made it into Q3 regardless and had the pace to do so. The tires werenโt in the right zone for either car so Max was sliding everywhere and Sergio spun. With the new track layout, I still expect a strong showing from Red Bull on race day. Their car is kind to tires and they definitely donโt have the 11th (for now) and 13th fastest cars in race pace. Either way, really exciting qualifying today!
If they're sliding around that much, then that won't be good for their tyres though. Let us have some.hope
Ha! Hey there is hope for sure. Red Bull in their worst form of the season. Who have you got winning tomorrow? I like George Russellโs chances. Ferrari is too hard on tires to hold him off for the entire race in my opinion. Everything is out the window if it rains thoughโฆ.
Anyone but Max and I'll be happy
If it is Max I will be happy.
If it is a good race, I will be happy
it's the same car as in Monza. The new TD has no impact.
Time will tell if this is just a poor weekend (barring the race result tomorrow) or if the lack of grip/handling continues for the rest of the season.
I think this session has proven that to be the case, exactly.
This is going to get crazy the coming few races. Angry brazen Max will make his return :).
It was already known that this weekend would be a very difficult weekend for them.
Aged like milk, it was too early to say.
