Portimão, Portugal, is only more than 10 kilometers away from the Atlantic Ocean. It is a seaside resort in Europe. It has arrived here in F1 this season. After the first two stops, Red Bull Racing's Verstappen was only 1 point away from Mercedes' Hamilton. It is generally believed that from the perspective of racing strength alone, Red Bull's speed is better than Mercedes.
The most surprising thing is that McLaren's team's Ricciardo failed to break out. He was surpassed at the last moment and finally stopped. After the game, he said that everything happened too quickly and there was no time to react. In fact, Ricardo is already changing his driving style to adapt to racing. Judging from Friday's practice match, the results are still good, but unfortunately the qualifying match failed to achieve good results.
The most impressive thing about the second quarter qualifying was Williams' Russell. The extremely talented British driver ran an incredible result of a mediocre car and finally finished 11th, only one step away from the third quarter qualifying. Moreover, Russell was 1.1 seconds faster than his teammates!
, all eyes were focused on Hamilton and Verstappen, but the real king was Mercedes driver Bottas who withdrew from the race in the last crash. In the end, the stubborn Finn won the pole position with 1 minute 18 seconds 348, not allowing his teammate Hamilton to reach the 100th pole position in his career.
, Verstappen, who had the highest pole position before the race, failed to run well due to interference from other racing cars, and ranked behind Hamilton and will start in third place.
CCTV5+ will bring you a live broadcast of the main competition at 22:00 tonight.
