Mercedes were forced to settle for the third row of the grid in Brazil.
Mercedes boss Toto Wolff says his team were not “adaptive” enough to the intense Brazilian GP weather conditions, a weakness exposed by Max Verstappen.
The session was red flagged and concluded as rain, thunder and lightening battered the track, even causing a grandstand roof at the final turn to collapse. Verstappen showed urgency at the start of Q3 as he cleared the slow-moving Mercedes pair through the pit exit, with that track time gained proving pivotal in the outcomes of what proved to be a one-lap Q3.
“The Aston Martins just stormed away, Max straight out of the garage with worn tyres also stormed away and that was the quickest cars and we were eight-tenths off the previous time and it shows you what we should have done.
