These conditions really bring out the chasm in ability between Stroll and Alonso.

Wow we need rain every weekend. This qualifying is nuts
Let's revive Bernie's sprinkler idea.
Wow, Williams with the big balls strategy, nicely done
I respect it. They saw a small window to put in some fast laps on softs and they capitalized on it in a big way.

Just the perfect timing. Got the tyres into the temperature window before the rain got stronger. Not sure if those who put on the softs late will be caught out by the rain now.

how do y'all feel about race weekends with these later than usual session start times?
I hate them, give me my 8-9am sessions!
How about you Euros/Asians? Are these times better or worse?
UK. Love them. Nothing like having a good weekend ending with a live race on a Sunday evening.

As an American, I greatly dislike the later times when races are on this side of the world. I don't mind waking up like 6,7,8am or whatever to watch a session. Or even staying up very late til like 4am. Even on Fridays for FP1 and FP2.
Idk, I like getting F1 "out of the way" so to speak, then I can do whatever else I need to do for rest of the day.
Like right now, it's 12:30p for me. That's not terrible since it's lunch time. But FP2 is at like 4pm; I tend to take a nap around then. If I was still working from the office, I'd be leaving the office around then.
there's nothing better than going to bed after being let down by ferrari

Go on Albon!
Stroll just isn't cutting it on Aston Martin anymore. Maybe his dad can give him a cushy office job so we can get a competent driver.
Send him to WEC. He's clearly got the talent for a top drive in any series except F1.

Perez has bottled it.
Wow, can't believe just a few races ago we were talking about whether this would be Perez year. And he is not even close to Verstappen.

Sainz is getting a penalty for that surely
Nice amount of impeding today.
yay, full wets!
Wow, Perez missings another Q3. Changing conditions give you some excuses, but overall that is not a good look against a team mate that is dominating the championship.

What’s great weekend. Canadian GP, US Open, and the Ashes. F in the chat for my wife and kids’ TV time please.
If the rain picks up now and the softs take 2 laps to get to working temperature, those who just came in might lose out heavily.
::: spoiler LEC PER and STR out in Q2? This is interesting :::
FIA: It's raining
Drivers: It's not raining
2 minutes later: Track is flooding
Q1 results
Top 3: VER ALO HAM
Eiminated: TSU GAS DEV SAR ZHO
🟥 Red flag. Hülkenberg with engine issues
🟩 Green flag. This one has been a bit shorter.
So one-lap-shootout coming up.
Starting to rain, and most drivers on softs
Q2, with more rain coming
