He was just immune to any feedback and even today he has not properly reflected that he did something wrong. “With 15 minutes to go I was in the garage thinking ‘we’re not going to win this’,” he remembers. “You’re almost in neutral, you’re thinking this is an early night, that’s the way it goes. It was the best weekend McLaren have had so far this season with Ricciardo picking up his first points of the campaign and Norris grabbing his highest finish. Toto Wolff’s team have been behind the pace all season and haven’t won a race yet. The former Red Bull driver managed to rise 10 places to give his team a point, moving them off the bottom of the constructors table. It’s going to take a number of races.” “I will be chasing the people in the wind tunnel, the aerodynamic guys, and just looking at every single area,” he said. Lewis does it every day, but you are guy who always seems to know better’. This means there will only be one hour of practice on the Friday followed by qualifying. Their situation is still not quite as bleak as the one at Mercedes, though, who appear hardly any closer to finding a solution to their lack of pace. Reigning world champion Max Verstappen was left bitterly disappointed after being forced to retire during the Australian Grand Prix when his car suffered further issues with its fueling system.

As he returned to the pits at the end of Q1, Albon, who will drop three places on the Melbourne grid as a result of his crash with Stroll in the Jeddah race, was ordered to pull over and stop his car ahead of the penultimate corner when Williams detected a problem. On that, only Gasly and Vettel were able to set personal bests, which meant Alex Albon and Kevin Magnussen – one of the most active on the final warm-up lap as he passed the Williams and Ricciardo to head the pack – missing the cut in 16th and 17th behind Schumacher, who out-qualified Magnussen for the first occasion in their time as Haas team-mates. As Latifi was passing by, Stroll turned right – possibly to get out of Zhou’s way as is the requirement for drivers not on a flying lap – and the pair made contact, breaking the Aston’s right-front suspension and sending Latifi spearing into the wall and smashing all the corners on his Williams. Sainz was unfortunate to not complete his first Q3 flying lap just as the red flags were brought out for Alonso’s crash and he could not match his team-mate’s pace in the final minutes. But Leclerc responded with purple sectors in the first and final thirds – Alonso retaining the best time in the middle sector – to post a 1m17.868s and secure his second pole of 2022 by 0.286s. Alonso had just set a then best time in the middle sector when he lost the rear of his Alpine going through Turn 11, the Spaniard saying after he crashed having been sent into the gravel and then into the wall on the outside, that he had “lost the hydraulics” and “could not change gear”.

Mercedes opted for two flying efforts, Russell going half a tenth ahead of Hamilton on his first one – with the seven-time champion having made a mistake in Sector 3. That left Alonso 10th – a purple second sector hinting agonisingly at what could have been for the two-time champion. However, there was plenty of time – more than six minutes – for the order to change. Perez, awaiting news of a possible penalty, was 0.372s off pole in a provisional P3. It feels great, and very happy to be on pole tomorrow," said pole-sitter Charles Leclerc. The order however will change as Albon carries a three-place grid penalty for his collision with Stroll in Saudi Arabia. That left the Ferraris third and fourth, Charles Leclerc three-tenths off the pace and Carlos Sainz another tenth away – with Fernando Alonso fifth for Alpine. Alonso’s brilliant run came to a painful end when his Alpine swapped ends at Turn 11, bringing out a red flag with seven minutes remaining. Before Alonso’s unfortunate crash, Leclerc had set the fastest time of 1m 18. They took a provisional 19th and 20th while stewards deliberate. Vettel, having crashed out of FP3, emerged after the red flag thanks to a herculean response from his crew, and managed to jump to P18 with Latifi 19th and Stroll last – piling more pressure on Aston Martin after his FP3 crash – on the provisional grid. Verstappen topped Q1 and Red Bull team mate Perez led Q2 – the Mexican driver under investigation for not slowing for a caution in Q1 – but Ferrari regrouped and it was Leclerc who aced the top 10 shootout with a time of 1m 17.868s to keep Verstappen 0.286s at bay in P2.

Charles Leclerc claimed his second pole of the 2022 Formula 1 season at the Australian Grand Prix, beating Max Verstappen.
Haas had balance problems on Friday, when Kevin Magnussen was also ill and Mick Schumacher had a suspension issue. Magnussen will at least gain one place when Alex Albon’s five-place grid penalty for colliding with Stroll in Saudi Arabia takes effect. Tsunoda was 13th. Albon qualified 16th, though he was also told to stop on track at the end of Q1 due to a car problem. It leaves him 10th on the grid. The red flag at least allowed Aston Martin to get the sister car of Sebastian Vettel – who had also crashed in FP3 – fixed to do a lap when the session resumed for a final two-minute dash. His team-mate Carlos Sainz fared much worse. Stroll had not set a time at that point following Aston Martin’s race to repair his car after his crash at the end of final practice. The red flag for Alonso came out just as he was approaching the line on his first flying lap, and he then made an error at Turn 6 on his other attempt, leaving the second Ferrari ninth. Alonso – who had been rapid in practice too – was on a lap faster than Leclerc’s provisional pole when he went through the gravel and into the wall at the Turn 11 right-hander. Verstappen jumped both of them to go fastest by 0.085s but Leclerc still had more to come and claimed a clear pole with a 1m17.868s. Leclerc battled the Red Bulls of Verstappen and Saudi Arabia polesitter Sergio Perez for pole after that, with Leclerc ahead by just 0.001s into the closing minutes.

This is the last thing I would have wanted; the goal here was to have a clean weekend and so this is extremely frustrating.” Sadly, the congested track and the cooler tyres meant that Alex could not improve, but it was a valiant effort in the circumstances. We struggled a bit with the balance in qualifying, but we cleared a very tight battle with our rivals in Q1 and we still got into a position that will allow us to fight for the points tomorrow. We did the best we could and we had the right approach to this session. I don’t think the result is representative of what the car can do in the race – there is more to come. Hopefully we’ll be in a position to fight tomorrow as the car in the long run felt good and we were able to follow, so hopefully we can follow and pass.” "We found a bit of pace overnight with the changes and were able to get the tyres in a better temperature region today but there wasn't much left in the car. “It was hard but there was potential to be in the top 10. It wasn’t the right thing to do and that costs us a couple of tenths, but Charles put in a tremendous lap, he put everything together and I didn’t. Hopefully tomorrow in the race we can be a lot closer, make it hard for them, have a strong race and enjoy it. We saw that McLaren and Alpine have made a step forward, we just didn’t have the pace to do much better. "Compared to yesterday and to the last race, today was a good day for me. After the difficult start to the season, today’s result is a great boost for everyone in the team, both here at the track and back home.
Fantastic Ferrari, marvellous McLaren and awful Aston: Aus GP qualifying analysis.
Alpine has been at its strongest in the fast second sector, which comprises Turn 6 and the 1.3-kilometre flat-out run down to Turn 9, most of which was a DRS zone. “But at the same time I think the majority of it is just the track. We had to learn still a lot about this new car during the first two race weekend, and I think having the chance to apply these learnings, that’s where performance is also coming from.” “I think the car is getting better and better. Mercedes’s positioning in the order is particularly interesting. McLaren was a standout performer on Saturday, with Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo neck and neck until the final runs, when Ricciardo was mystified by a set of new tyres that offered him no additional pace. His car had succumbed to a hydraulic problem fundamentally shut down his car. It took until the end of Friday to massage the car into its optimum window, and by second practice Verstappen was demonstrating field-leading race pace. “We just need to do a good start and hopefully we can keep that first position.” “I took quite a bit of risk, especially in Turn 6, which was quite tricky,” he said. Maranello’s 2022 machine is complaint, responsive and predictable, and it’s meant Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz are inevitable in contention at the point end of Saturdays. It’s the first time both McLarens have cracked Q3 this season.

“It is so frustrating. “I don’t know if we could fight for pole but for sure top three. And then yesterday was a difficult day. He wasn’t looking in his mirrors. Fellow Canadian Latifi said: “I don’t understand what he was doing. Aston Martin driver Stroll screamed: “F___ Latifi, man.

“A good night sleep and that’s it,” said Sainz. “I need to sleep. Incredibly unlucky; everything that could have gone wrong in Q3 went wrong, especially because I was in the fight for pole position the whole quali.” I couldn’t prepare the tyre, I couldn’t warm up the tyre.
Max Verstappen thought he had pole at the Australian Grand Prix. But Ferrari's Charles Leclerc had other ideas.

DRIVERS 1 – Charles LECLERC (Ferrari) 2 – Max VERSTAPPEN (Red Bull) 3 – Sergio PÉREZ (Red Bull) TRACK INTERVIEWS(Conducted by Johnny Herbert) Q: Well, ...
MV: Well probably the track has a little bit to do with it but, yeah, so far in qualifying it's not been amazing just because of not having a great balance and yeah… SP: Yeah, I think it's a bit of a shame, because I think for tomorrow into the race, definitely the racing could have been a lot better. And the last sector also on Q3 lap, on the last Q3 lap, I lost a little bit, but just because it was very difficult to see where I was. CL: Yeah, I think on our side, I haven't spoken about it yesterday or at the drivers’ briefing, but on our side with the heavy bouncing that we have with a DRS it was quite tricky sometimes. I just struggled a lot with the balance of the car, and it just doesn't give you confidence to push. So yeah, you have to ask I guess, the FIA, why they took it away. It was completely dark and there was no sun, so I went back and then there was a lot of sun. You are just guessing a little bit, and it's just with the rhythm of the weekend, you know more-or-less that you need to turn here. My first run in Q3 started to feel a bit better and I was actually hooking it up, but then I lock up again in one corner, just because of a random balance shift. In Q3 a little bit better, on the first run was good, second run wasn't. It was a very tricky session. Q: It seems to be a bit of a theme for you. I regret a bit the decision we took going into Q3 without a strategy on the tyres.
