    His race pace the last few races has been concerning, but the terrible performances in qualifying is just dumbfounding. The Red Bull has such a gap on the rest of field, shown by Max, that Checo should never be in danger of missing Q3 barring a crash or mechanical failure.

    I know his seat is probably safe as long as Red Bull stays solidly ahead in the constructors, but if he keeps performing this poorly RBR has to at least look at potential options for next season.

    He was so good earlier in the year. If I had my tinfoil hat on I’d think Red Bull set it up so their star Verstappen wins again.

      It’s just like Lewis vs. Bottas every year. Some drivers are just insanely consistent.
