On the other hand, Mercedes’ rivals- Ferrari are going through a rough patch, even though this track is considered to be the home of Ferrari, Sebastian Vettel humiliatingly got eliminated in Q1.
His teammate Charles Leclerc didn’t take long to join him in the paddock, as he got out in Q2. Meanwhile, Red Bull just missed being in the top tier, as Max Verstappen finished at P5 and Alex Albon at P9.
