Formula 1 Rolex Magyar Nagydíj 2019

He re-overtook him then just backed all the way off.

Too bad for Russell... his lap looked great.

Being behind a car in Qualifying that close you might as well give up especially given it was a Racing Point that wasn't fast enough to get to the next session.

 

[niky]

Ferraris awfully slow through that last sector.

 

[BrainsBush]

With Norris on P6 both Ferraris and Gasly need to go out on softs

Edit: They all three stayed on yellows...

 

[niky]

This is going to be a crooowded last two minutes.

 

[BrainsBush]

1:14:958 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[PaMu1337]

Could finally be Max' first pole

 

[niky]

Max under 1:15!

Ferrari is just giving up way too much downforce for that fast first sector to do a good third.

They're way off Merc and Red Bull.

Oh, and Honda for WCC next year. As long as they find someone faster than Gasly.

 

[PaMu1337]

0.018!

 

[BrainsBush]

1st Pole!!! Congratz Max

 

[PaMu1337]

100th driver to take pole

 

[niky]

That was a MIGHTY lap.

 

[JarreauPique]

Woooooop Max!

 

[PzR Slim]

Hamilton didn't open his DRS after final corner.

Hamilton didn't open his DRS after final corner.

Interesting... driver mistake or component failure?

 

[PaMu1337]

First Honda pole since 2006

 

[FoxMulder]

About time for Max!

Great that the switch to Honda is going quite well too.

 

[PzR Slim]

Congrats to Verstappen on his first pole. How many will he end up with?

 

[niky]

Hamilton didn't open his DRS after final corner.

Before he started the lap?

 

[PzR Slim]

Before he started the lap?

At the end of his final lap.

 

[niky]

At the end of his final lap.

Didn't matter by then. He was already 2/10ths down in S1. He was never going to match the other two, and the Ferraris were such garbage in S3 that his third place was secure.

I wasn't suggesting it would. His awful sector 1 cost him pole.

 

[BrainsBush]

Sorry to spoil (my own) party. Max superb but Pierre almost 0,9 slower ?!?!

Ah. Gotcha.

Still leading F1.5

 

[AshenGraey]

Still leading F1.5

That is the very bare minimum that is expected of him seeing how he is driving a car that is on par with Mercedes and Ferrari.

 

[andrea]

Verstappen single handedly driving up Honda stock.

 

[PaMu1337]

Interviewer: "Doesn't it feel good to finally have that pole?"
Max: "It's great that people will finally stop asking about it"

Bare minimum is the reason he's not going to be in that seat next year.

 

[Lizard]

About time he got a pole. GO MAX.

I rate him to win tomorrow too.

 

[sumbrownkid]

Nice to see Mclaren showing Renault what its engine is capable of...

Wonder how much longer Renault will keep Cyril if these mediocre results keep coming in.

I pick Lewis to #bless his way to a win tomorrow btw.

Max: "It's great that people will finally stop asking about it"

At least he didn't threaten to headbutt them this time.
