still some wet/damp patches, slicks could be a gamble for some.
Hamilton on for pole
Lewis is flying on Q3 but so is Max
well he was , scruffy lap from Max, but only 0.3 ahead of Lewis
Great on board view from Max, this is really a struggle
this is a cracking Q3
No idea what Max was doing these last laps. Out of fuel?
WTF??
that was a dreadful Q3 for Max. P8.
Told to pit because he needs a fuel sample.
But that was maybe the best Q3 for a while.

Underfueling in these circumstances is Ferrari level incompetence.
He aborted a front row lap to do a pole lap and then had to cancel it to avoid starting 20th.

That was great entertainment. Massive feck up from RB there.
Ah man that was Hamilton's chance, but he's in this race big time.
He qas leading two laps and lifted. I don't understand what the hell was that
Fecking hell, Max quit the second to last lap while having the fastest time then is told to break off another fastest lap? What the actual feck? Whatever the reason a major feckup by Red Bull.
red bull ferraring for the first time this year
Max is well pissed off and you can understand why.
It could b down t fuel, better to get P8 with fuel for sample, than P1 and get DQ for having no sample.

Did that purpose, cant have max on pole by 0.5 ahead of leclerc. Would show where the extra £5mil of money went.

Max has a lot to do to win this race now, at this track can P8 win ?
Well assuming that Ferrari dont feck it up.

Surely if it was a fuel sample issue for Max, they wouldn't have let him do nearly the whole lap?
Could he not have gone over the line then stopped?

Can’t believe you figure that out so quickly! I was still thinking if Max wants to break some other recordsDid that purpose, cant have max on pole by 0.5 ahead of leclerc. Would show where the extra £5mil of money went.
Lewis still has his piercing in despite being sent to the stewards
You have to make it back to the pitlane.
If they knew fuel was a problem they should never have let him abort the first attempt, it was easily good enough for the front row at least.
But Sergio didnt run out of fuel so did Max use more or did they underfuel him?
With 4mins to go why didnt anyone stop for a new set of slicks? Could of got pole.
Would never have got temp in them.
by the sounds of it RB did right, better 8th than back of the grid.
Even then why abandon the second to last lap? That was easily good enough for front row, maybe even pole. If it was fuel they'd have known by then wouldn't they? Simply a major feckup by Red Bull. Unbelievable.
Yes very good point surely they should have told him he only had enough for that lap so he'd have known he needed to finish it off, he'd have been better than 8th at least. Probably their first shocking decision when they usually come across so slick
Good luck to the person given Max to interview!
Yeah that was weird. Did Max just think feck it on that lap or was he ordered to can and save it for the last lap? Makes little sense either way.
RB fecked up, yeah maybe , Max aborted the second to last because he made a mistake.
You would think they know how much fuel down to the ml was in the tank
That was fun! It will be fun watching drivers cam later, the amount of drifting in last sector was ridiculous.
Leclerc keeps proving he is probably fastest driver over one lap this season(and is still so underrated here for some reason, his one or two mistakes are still described asajor feck ups despite even best driver this season - Verstappen having similar number of big mistakes), but Ferrari have no race pace to take advantage of that. We'll probably see that tomorrow too, they generally looked even slower this weekend from what I have seen, it was just brilliant lap from Leclerc that gave them a pole.
Should be a great race, IMO, very random order.
Btw, Alonso is brilliant once again.

Major feck up. Can't believe he didn't finished second to last lap and then went for pole. He was risking any other driving crashing before him and screwing his lap anyway for no reason.
Singapore GP Qualifying Result
Max ran out of money… I mean fuel. Would have been disqualified from qually if not enough fuel in the car and it was Max who fecked up by unintentionally doing an extra lap.
