@@lamrof Ham first flying lap got deleted and by the time Seb crashes Ham was on the second flying lap attempt but again wiped out by the red flag Seb brought out. At this point theres not much time left in Q2(not enough for completing 2 whole laps) and Ham still doesn't had put down a lap time yet but Ham managed to make his third flying lap at the last second of Q2.
@@jackywng1236 What would have happened if he did not cross in time in his 2nd lap of Q2? I am guessing he would have been relegated to position 11 to 15 on the gird and no more q3 for him?
@@lamrof I guess you mean the last flying lap, if he didn't made it he would have stayed P15, while Seb P14 cuz he got a lap time before crash, and didn't make it to Q3 cuz Ham has no lap time in Q2. Look at 2:25 that he has not set any lap time yet
@@DenDave_ My guess is that not all young drivers would perform like max or leclerc right away, it was a different red bull when ricciardo had the other wheel.
@@tima7598 Considering Perez is in 9th and Stroll is in 6th and was running 4th last week - til a puncture ended his race, that's pretty wishful thinking.
That just shows Lewis’s mental strength from almost getting knocked out in q2 because or red flag or bad timing he comes and gets pole by over 5 tenths at a track where Botas has been very very strong at
Man it almost seems like Lewis is trolling Valtteri by letting him be the fastest guy in free practice and just when Valtteri gets a slimmer of hope he shuts the door on his face with these awesome performances.
@eoe123321 i wouldn't say bottas is horrible because he is always a couple of tenths behind him. Lewis dominates him, yes, but it's not like Verstappen and Albin where Max is consistently ahead of Albon
@eoe123321 Wrong! Botras isn't horrible. He's actually great, he's just been out qualified by his Team mate, and usually not by that much. I believe Lewis brings more experience, consistency, extra work into going for more than Bottas does. That being said, Mercedes drivers are the ONLY ones who are always 10th to 100th of sec from each other. When you look at the others, you could think that they drive 2 different cars in the same Team.

@@shyamalgajjar6149 Either Max is the most talented driver on the grid. Or Alex is driving a different car made for Max by Maxbull. I believe in the latter judging by how Gasly performed last year.
@@OutlawXplosive I mean, do not get me wrong: I hold no grudge against Hamilton. While I do not think that he is the GOAT (as there is no GOAT in Formula 1, aside from maybe Fangio and Schumacher, depending on definition), it would've promised an even juicier race for tomorrow.
@@DRFOP Thats what everyone said during the ShoeMaker era when he was winning all the time and no one seemed to be on his level. Maybe F1 just inst for you?
@@mikhayanqakula7490 How can he really challenge Lewis, who is arguably the best driver ever, to be challenged by Bottas who will most likely to go down in history as someone who didn't disgrace himself but was never considered great.
@@mikhayanqakula7490 Valterri is simply just not at the same level... Lewis, whether you like him or not, he's a driver at the same level with Schumi and arguably even better than him... right now only Max and Charles have the potential to challenge Lewis if they are in the same car... as for the others, not even a chance...
Lol McLaren has two podiums, Lando is 4th in the standings and Sainz has delivered in every race he wasn't unlucky, they are clearly the best of the rest
Usual suspects? Lol, mercedes drivers are garbage, 44 messed up Q2 only THREE TIMES and barely got through thanks to best F1 car. Then in Q3, another garbage lap that was P1 only thanks to car, Max was 0.5 seconds behind in 1.4 seconds slower car, speaks volumes who is better here, and Ric/Perez also shown they would be far faster in equal cars...
If last year is any indication, Bottas is actually in the best starting spot. Clean side of the grid and get the slipstream. Having said that, now watch Bottas botch the start
He made a mistake here, but he’s usually pretty decent in qualifying, however he takes no risks in the race. I haven’t even seen him try to overtake Lewis while vice versa it happens when he has the opportunity, so Bottas is told to not overtake Lewis - apart from the start at Mugello - or he’s just far too conservative.
@@leewat9068 how does that matter if you start p10 and finish the race where you were supposed to start it??? imagine hamilton always qualifying p7-p10 and making it to p5 in the race, yes it would´ve taken a lot of overtakes but he´s not supposed to finish p5, same with Albon...you´re dumb
I thought so too, but we didn’t see how long Bottas stayed on throttle to actually make a difference, because finish line is right at the start of the straight and after that he probably slowed down.
Shame hamilton can fly off the track in his outlap, get his times deleted twice, and make it to the start line with 1 second to go on the session, and still outqualify verstappen, despite clever tricks like the slipstream he used from bottas. We just won't know who is the best driver on the grid because of the difference in cars.
@@disco.lemonade Yeah hamilton is making so many mistakes this season. There are drivers with fewer mistakes this whole season than hamilton made in this qualifying session alone. But as long as hes in the best car winning all the races people will say hes the best.
by the way things look its going to be the whole season, i am for Lewis, but i am hoping Bottas wins tomorrow to make this whole thing a little bit interesting
He doesn't even have the upgrades that the Stroll has because Stroll managed to wreck his car last race and all Sergio's updates went to Stroll. Sergio Perez is driving his heart out
Sánchez Boy Leclerc is probably at the best position for the race for Ferrari pace. He will have free choice of tyres and fresher tyre than the guys in front. So I don’t know, w’ll see tomorrow!
@@Powerate They just try to make the Races more entertaining this way because its boring as heck and it kinda works to be fair, but it still destroys the flow a bit.
Yeah mercedes let him have his fun on FP, then they hit the magic button to tune down his car and let Ham shine. A white guy cant outperform his black teammate, that would be racist.
Yeah, this is such a bizarre take. The second runs were much faster than the first in Q2, and Lance drew the short straw on getting out to set a 2nd time after the red flag.
I said when Bottas joined Merc that all the trolls would finally see how talented of a driver Roberg really was. He was never appreciated during his time in the sport but now people are beginning to realise just how important he was.
@@kindandsoftasfluff7289 i have tremendous respect for a man who makes a mistake and brings himself to say sorry. I am sure many following this post concurr
He would had won most likly anyway this Mercedes is on another Level but would had been interesting watching him overtake the hole Field in 20 Laps or less.
It is nice to see a mix up in the rest of the field a bit. I completely respect Hamilton for his skills (especially after his finish on 3 tires) but it is getting really boring.
Max is aggressive while racing and he pushes harder than anyone on grid. But he has become more gentle and humble than before. And these are signs of future champion . 🙂🏎️
Thanks for the highlights, 6 mins is plenty for me, bit like the race highlights, just enough for me to see them all without falling asleep like a full race........
I recently got hooked to F1 and I had no idea what the qualifying was all about, watching this makes me want to further into this new hoobie that I have.
The car was perfectly build for Max. They didn't build a car that fits Alex. For Alex its just take it or leave it. Poor guy, he has the hardest teammate who let's everyone look like a rookie. Gasly is the perfect example.
As a fan, yes Perez over Stroll for days :> As a reasonable analysis, we need to recognize that the older package has less potential, but also less risk as driver has been accustomed to that handling all season. Major updates frequently prevent drivers from driving 100% effectively for quite a few races (RBR developing high rake car, Ferrari's frequent updates to remove drag after their engine own-goal etc.)
joe r gonzales After the red flag there were 5 or 6 cars lined up in the pit lane waiting for the green and racing point pulled him back into the garage. Might’ve been an over heating issue for idling for too long.
Fun fact: Hulkenberg has more points than Hass, Alfa Romeo, and Williams combined
Fun fact: Kimi Raikkonen has 103 more podiums than Nico Hulkenberg and more wins, poles and podiums than the Williams drivers, Haas drivers, Hulkenberg, and his teammate COMBINED.

If that was their plan, then Leclerc could have caused a yellow at the end of Q2
@ReverseHell yeah me too,but it was our master 🅱️lan™️
David Vasquez That car is so hard to drive. Put any driver in that car and he would also spin
I appreciate the irony of Vettel almost being the reason Hamilton didn't get to Q3, only for Hamilton to then be the reason Leclerc didn't get to Q3.
Perez was like " you guys sure want to let me go?"
Honesty man smh
Stroll father: Yes walk away
Who is here because of Drive to survive season 3? :DD
2020 F1 season: So remember they are those rare things called red flags
Me : yeah what about them
2020 F1 season : 😂😂😅🤣🤣
Red flags during qualifying are pretty common, race ones on the other hand
@@Powerate They just try to make the Races more entertaining this way because its boring as heck and it kinda works to be fair, but it still destroys the flow a bit.
Practice 1 - Bottas
Practice 2 - Bottas
Practice 3 - Bottas
Qualifying - Hamilton
Race - Hamilton
Championship - Hamilton
Smh.
Mehn am tired , very tired Bottas cannot just bring the heat
Just bring the pace to qualli vatteri
It’s frustrating to watch him just drop back every race. Really miss Rosberg!
Yeah mercedes let him have his fun on FP, then they hit the magic button to tune down his car and let Ham shine. A white guy cant outperform his black teammate, that would be racist.
@@IvanCalderon You're full of it mate
Perez proving time and time again that he deserves his seat.
With HAAS
samuel rigaud why not Bottas’s seat?

Doesnt feel like russia does it? The season is crazy . Even sochi is fun
it isn't because hamilton is p1
Well he starts in a compromised strat
@@anshumanmahapatra9372 not a big deal, he will win by 30 secs then you will come to senses
@@iceman1125 expect that, but atleast quali was fun and uncertain at times
The entire Q2 would probably be much more exciting than sundays race : /
I don’t think it will be that boring because Ham has the worse starting tire ... could be interesting
@@vincent7223
So it's depended on Hamilton potentially having a bad race and not the actual racing?
U!? smh

Perez goes P4 in a 2019 Mercedes. Stroll out in Q2 in a 2019 + 1/2 2020 Mercedes.
lul just watch the race strategy Perez gonna end up p10 and stroll like p5 because daddy’s cash 🤦♂️
To be fair the red flag stopped him from a second q2 run
Yeah, this is such a bizarre take. The second runs were much faster than the first in Q2, and Lance drew the short straw on getting out to set a 2nd time after the red flag.
Do people realize that stroll had a mechanical problem at the red flag and couldn't do his second run?🙄
Bottas big brains
Never missed Nico Rosberg as much as I miss him now.
or danny ric at red bull
You guys didn't appreciated him enough...
I said when Bottas joined Merc that all the trolls would finally see how talented of a driver Roberg really was. He was never appreciated during his time in the sport but now people are beginning to realise just how important he was.
@@garythefishable I'm one of those who didn't appreciate him then. Bottas has completely changed my view of Nico.

S🅱️innoto: uhh... No he is on pole
Seb: MEIN GOTT MUSS DA SIEN!!!!!
Dang it. Was almost gonna have an interesting race for tomorrow if Hamilton had to start from P15.
He would had won most likly anyway this Mercedes is on another Level but would had been interesting watching him overtake the hole Field in 20 Laps or less.
All my mates have stopped watching because it's so predictable.
It is nice to see a mix up in the rest of the field a bit. I completely respect Hamilton for his skills (especially after his finish on 3 tires) but it is getting really boring.
TheFirstK dude have you not watched Sochi before? It’s almost mission impossible to overtake a car unless you are more than 1.7 seconds faster a lap.
@@kenchen704 it's my first season watching F1, is Sochi really as bad as everyone says it is?

I thought I was the only one. I guess there's a lot of us out there then
Hamilton - Monster lap.
Max - Monster lap.
I think Max did a red Bull lap 😂
Gabriel Castro ba dum tssssss
noice work max! i want riccardo at poduim though.
I don't think ricciardo's car is fast enough.
Max can win the race though. He is on the mediums and he is probably going to get into the lead on the start with the slipstream.
Rick Memmet its not
Should be careful though at the start with slip stream, myt get passed by Bottas
@sports person nice joke
Max is aggressive while racing and he pushes harder than anyone on grid.
But he has become more gentle and humble than before. And these are signs of future champion . 🙂🏎️
He was literally just cursing out everyone during the practice sessions🤣
LOL nice joke
He's definitely improved alright.
No
@UCCc8Xg27IOnj9AL5tPWPsiQ Other Aggressive Drivers improved in this way an became champion I presume. (Vet maybe? idk)
Thanks for the highlights, 6 mins is plenty for me, bit like the race highlights, just enough for me to see them all without falling asleep like a full race........
Bottas: Oh well, at least I’m on the front row.
Verstappen: Hold my water.
*Goes P2*
Bottas: *Hello darkness my old friend*
Do people like you realize how cryptic these comments are?
Karlo Veliki now is that cryptic?
Verstappen: Hold my Red Bull
I really hope that 2021 brings Vettel back to the top.
He's the new head sweeper-upper at Aston Martin.
Its in 2021 going to be like his 2015- 2016 ferrari but we are yet to see the 2022 version
It'll be amusing (to me) if Stroll out-qualifies and out-races him every weekend.
@@veemacks7255 Stroll struggles to even beat Perez, there is no way he will beat Vettel EVERY weekend
@@tupatups7687 No, but it'd be fun if it happened.
When qualifying is more exciting than the actual race
If it wasn’t Russia I’d say you don’t know
Maybe we'll get a fight for second. Sochi is just a waste of a track. It should be Malaysia.
Ok hold on , the race hasn't even started yet , you never know , it could end up being a banger

Fun q session, thanks
Verstappen: P2 ahead of a Mercedes
Albon: P10 behind a Alpha Tauri
Also the gap was 1.2 seconds between them.
The car was perfectly build for Max. They didn't build a car that fits Alex. For Alex its just take it or leave it. Poor guy, he has the hardest teammate who let's everyone look like a rookie. Gasly is the perfect example.
@@MT-uc2xv and does this mean it is undrivable for anyone else??? he´s a proffesional F1 driver for god´s sake, stop making excuses for him
@@MT-uc2xv A car is NEVER made for a driver, just like Rosberg recently explained. The car is just hard to drive, and Max can handle that better.
@GP2_Engine How do you know this? Have you ever driven the car? :D
they don't even have the same parts on their RB no point to compare their times it's unfair
Hamiliton is just teasing everyone until he wins with a evil laugh.
2:18 to me is not like Vettel lost the rear, the engine does the same sound as Leclerc in the Spanish GP when it shut down automatically
josem138 could be....
Nah... Commentator got it spot on. Ferrari has been struggling with rear end grip whole season.
Great highlights crooks
imagine getting beaten by your teammate that has older aero package 😂
I think u r talking about perez
But even McLaren doing same as Sainz have old front wing and still out qualifying Norris.....smh
Grosjean did the same to Magnussen last year
As a fan, yes Perez over Stroll for days :>
As a reasonable analysis, we need to recognize that the older package has less potential, but also less risk as driver has been accustomed to that handling all season. Major updates frequently prevent drivers from driving 100% effectively for quite a few races (RBR developing high rake car, Ferrari's frequent updates to remove drag after their engine own-goal etc.)
@@icehawk3442 wow an Fanboy who is actually having an Brain respect finally.
@@icehawk3442 agree, but stroll already crashed his car in tuscan and basically he took what is meant for checo
2:31 the last moment my monitor recapped before I punched against him
This was a fun one to watch.
YESSSSS, Max on 2nd is AWWESOMEEEEEE
Sergio Perez: Do you see the Lance? ....I don't see the Lance maybe racing point we need glasses to see who is better and who should stay 😵😵
He's up ahead of you, in 6th place in the points. Maybe you should not worry about the glasses so much and learn to count instead.
-2 races and no special upgrades
@@frankpinmtl - so why didn't Lance make it into Q3???......in a pink Mercedes W10????.....and with upgrades????
(this I gotta hear).
@@jgonzalesm6 yep, RP's scapegoat of saying Lance is the better driver not really being backed up here.
joe r gonzales After the red flag there were 5 or 6 cars lined up in the pit lane waiting for the green and racing point pulled him back into the garage. Might’ve been an over heating issue for idling for too long.
Perez deserve a seat next season
HWA, lol
Who's here after watching dts to see if they showed Bottas giving Max the tow
