Pole for Max Verstappen, and what a performance from the Hulk in qualifying 👏 F1 CanadianGP Formula1
It was quite the turnaround for the Haas driver, who went from what he described as a “barbecue” from a smoking engine in Friday practice to a rare front row start following an entertaining wet qualifying session around Montreal on Saturday.
But only three minutes in, Zhou Guanyu was seen crawling in his Alfa Romeo and was forced to park up, bringing out the red flag. With his car only having a software issue from the looks of things, however, he was able to fire his C43 back up again and find his way back to the pits – with the delay in the session only being short before the drivers headed back out.
But after a scramble to try and start a final flying lap involving Carlos Sainz, who had already been investigated for impeding in FP3, Yuki Tsunoda was knocked out alongside Alpine’s Pierre Gasly, who both took avoiding action against the Ferrari driver. The remaining drivers soon poured into the pits for dry tyres, but the move from Albon and Williams to go on slicks from the outset looked inspired – lapping a full second faster than anyone else at one point and finishing Q2 fastest of anybody.
