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.
Go on Albon!
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.
Williams with 2 fastest sectors, just like we ll predicted.
Williams dominance could bore fans
What a clusterfuck that was at the end.
This new wall in the wet is pushing drivers out on to the racing line when they rejoin.
If its wet during the race, this has some dreadful implications.
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.
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.
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.
Q1 results
Top 3: VER ALO HAM
Eiminated: TSU GAS DEV SAR ZHO
Sainz is getting a penalty for that surely
Nice amount of impeding today.
Could turn into a tough weekend for Ferrari with both cars (probably) starting outside the top 10.
Q2 results
Fastest: ALB VER NOR
Eliminated: LEC PER STR MAG BOT
exactly as expected
Red flag, Piastri on the wall as Hülkenberg gets P2
So it's effectively over now with Hulk on the front row?
Session probably restarts, but if rain continues track will be slower.
Hulk P2? Please let it happen!
::: spoiler LEC PER and STR out in Q2? This is interesting :::
With the ongoing rain, that has to be the final classification. Great work by Hulkenberg and Alonso. Verstappen delivering as expected.
Unless the rain stops before the track is green flagged again. But it currently looks like it would take more than 7 minutes to form a dry line again, even if the rain stopped right now.
wooow HULK!
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.
Seems like lemmy.ml is having some trouble pushing out comments to other instances from this post 😬 Many comments here are missing on other instances
Might make sense to host these threads on a less overloaded instance?
What an action-packed FP1!
wait, just tuned in, what the fuck happend?
Thanks to the mods for making this thread!
Hoping for a good race, though it's bit late in the evening for us Europeans
Aw, man, went to commercial right as Gasly was about to tell everybody how he felt about Sainz being in the middle of the track.
So one-lap-shootout coming up.
What is this race direction? We're missing albon and Norris soft lap. Who is in charge this weekend? Seems worse than other weekends.
Starting to rain, and most drivers on softs
Does it rain everyontreal GP weekend?
Sainz should get even more then a 3 grid penalty. This was not only impeading, but crazy dangerous.
The penalty is given for the infringement, not the outcome. Not that I disagree with you, but that is how the rules are applied.
Q2, with more rain coming
