Disappointing for Ferrari also

It is fourth and fifth for Ferrari who were quickest during the two practice sessions on Friday.

They just didn’t have enough in them to keep up with the flying Dutchman Verstappen or the McLarens.

A win on home soil would take a massive effort for the Ferrari team.

Piastri is still under investigation

Just a reminder that Oscar Piastri is still under investigation for appearing to impede Kevin Magnussen during the first part of qualifying.

What a shame it would be for the Australian if he loses out on that second place.

If he is penalised then generally that would mean he drops three places which would relegate him behind Lando Norris and the two Ferrari drivers.

Elsewhere, a disappointing day for Mercedes in 6th and 8th, with Lewis Hamilton again having a lot of work to do from the fourth row.
