Norris: Won’t change much
Speaking of qualifying: Sprint winner Lando Norris doesn’t want to change much. “So far it has worked. We will change a few things. There are a few points I want to do differently than yesterday, and we will adjust them,” he announces.
But there will “probably not be too many” changes, because so far it has been “a good day.” “A good start to the weekend, but now I have to do it all again,” says the world champion.

“But we are not too far behind,” he clarifies and adds: “If we put everything together, we can start a bit further up.” Afterwards, the qualifying for the Grand Prix awaits us.

No start for Nico Hülkenberg!
Hülkenberg drove onto the track, his Audi is running – but only briefly. Because even before he reaches the starting grid, smoke is coming heavily from his rear. Flames also come out of the exhaust. The German parks his Audi R26 on the track and cannot participate in the sprint!

Can Nico Hülkenberg start?
These are not images fans like to see: Work is being done under Nico Hülkenberg’s car and even liquid is being wiped up. Is there a problem? If Hülkenberg cannot start, it would be the third (!) time this season that we see only one Audi on the grid.
Lindblad starts from the pit lane
When the sprint starts shortly, only 21 cars will be on the grid, because rookie Arvid Lindblad will start from the pit lane. His Racing Bulls team worked too long on the car and broke the curfew. Although there are four jokers per team and season for this, it does not protect Lindblad from a penalty.
Reason: It remains a violation of the parc fermé regulations. Lindblad had driven to 16th place in the sprint qualifying but had gained one position due to subsequent track limits of Alexander Albon.
