00:00Yeah, we saw, as Tempest giving us information,
00:04of Williams, I think it was, trying to get its...
00:06No, it was... I'm trying to get its wheel, and there it is.
00:10It's safe, unsafe.
00:11Over the white line, because as soon as you...
00:15And his mechanic was telling him to stop.
00:18More effectively is the last corner on the track,
00:21because it's all just sweepers then, until you get to the timing line.
00:25And Max Verstappen does get to that timing line,
00:27with a time of a 1.27.953,
00:31and was in the commentary box with Jenson and Ants,
00:35for FP1 and myself, explaining all about the movie.
00:39Didn't really love FP1, did.
00:41Here's Kimi Antonelli, one of six rookies,
00:43experiencing the Miami International Autodrome.
00:45For the first time, he crosses the line, goes quickest.
00:48For the 1.27.8, it's potting up out there.
00:52Happy days.
00:54One of the rookies I was talking to this morning
00:56was like, I don't know this track.
00:58I said, look, it's straights and lefts and rights.
01:02Words of wisdom from Martin Brundle,
01:04who spotted straight away that Charles Leclerc had touched the wall.
01:09It was a bit of a heavier touch than it looked at first glance.
01:12I think there was no wheel mark.
01:15I think it was just mostly sidewall.
01:18Yeah, that was a firm kiss.
01:23Yes.
01:25Yes.
01:260 centimetres away, too close to the wall.
01:28Yeah.
01:29Just a bang on there.
01:30That's all it needs.
01:31Yeah.
01:32Gabriel Bortoleto in the south.
01:34Has he touched the wall down there as well?
01:37He has.
01:38Right side.
01:39I touched down there.
01:40Yeah, absolutely done.
01:4116th.
01:42On the way, stroll then into the final few corners
01:45for an Aston Martin team who haven't scored a sprint point
01:48since Qatar 2023.
01:51Would dearly love their man out of the bottom five,
01:54bottom six, I should say, and he hasn't.
01:55He's down in 15th.
01:57There's the chequered flag.
01:58Across the line goes Nika Hulkenberg, moves up into ninth.
02:02Did Yuki Tsunoda make it to the line?
02:06No, he didn't to start his next lap in time.
02:10Yuki Tsunoda is out of sprint qualifying in the first part.
02:13And Oli Behrman has also not made it out in time as well.
02:17So Oli Behrman and Yuki Tsunoda,
02:19they can't do anything in this lap.
02:21Hadja, with a bit of pressure on his shoulders,
02:23goes eighth fastest.
02:25So his batteries won't be recharged,
02:27I wouldn't imagine, with that last lap.
02:29And that will see him out of contention too.
02:33Carlos Sainz goes third fastest for Williams.
02:36Really aced that final sector.
02:37George Russell goes quickest overall.
02:40His teammate Oli Behrman didn't get his lap in
02:42before the chequered flag.
02:43And he is the slowest.
02:45And this is on board with Lando Norris,
02:48who wasn't overly happy with the red bull to his right.
02:53I got held up.
02:55Yeah, I understood that was Max.
02:58Confirmation there from Will Joseph,
02:59his race engineer, that it was Max Verstappen.
03:02This is Yuki Tsunoda.
03:06This is his teammate Max Verstappen ahead of him.
03:09Was he held up a bit there by Max Verstappen?
03:12Who was getting into the pits and getting out of the way.
03:16He certainly backed off Tsunoda.
03:17And when he crossed the line, there's the red lights on.
03:20Oof.
03:21That was so unfortunate, wasn't it?
03:24I think he did just hover there.
03:25It's Verstappen.
03:26I feel like he goes so deep into that corner at turn 16.
03:32Did that cost him any time?
03:34A 1.27.7.
03:35We're on board now with Lewis Hamilton in the Ferrari.
03:38A half a second down is the slowest of the five times we've had so far.
03:43Meanwhile, here comes Lando Norris to cross the line.
03:46Goes quickest by a couple of tenths from Kimi Antonelli,
03:49which is what you'd expect given the form of the McLaren and Lando Norris so far this season.
03:55Here comes Oscar Piastri and he now goes faster by a couple of tenths of a second
03:59and absolutely smashed the final sector.
04:03Yeah, that's a good effort from Piastri.
04:05He could be in the set.
04:07It can be pressure-related as well, tyre pressure-related.
04:10Heading off track, but not completely off track, but enough.
04:14So they'll want to check the floor, I think, there.
04:16Alex Albon in the Williams.
04:19Plenty of opposite lock there through the little chicane.
04:23This is Alex Albon again on a cool lap.
04:29And the other, getting out of the way of other cars here,
04:32with so many blind corners,
04:35I mean, the mirrors are about as useful as a chocolate fire guard anyway.
04:39I don't know how the work is legal.
04:42Yeah, it could be.
04:43Isaac Hadjic goes seventh fastest.
04:45Alonso trying to jump now out of that bottom five
04:48and does so, goes seventh fastest.
04:51Could Aston Martin get a car in SQ3 here?
04:53That would be a big bonus for them,
04:55given their struggles so far this season.
04:59And that is a very slow-moving Carlos Sainz.
05:01Yeah.
05:02Which is not good.
05:03I wonder if he's another one, Martin,
05:04that's banged the wall and has had to bail out of the lap.
05:08Antonelli next across the line goes up into the top four.
05:10Liam Lawson,
05:11Liam Lawson,
05:12who's a big fan of the car in SQ3 here.
05:13And that's a big bonus for them.
05:14And that's a big bonus for them,
05:15given their struggles so far this season.
05:16And that is a very slow-moving Carlos Sainz.
05:18Yeah.
05:19Which is not good.
05:20I wonder if he's another one, Martin,
05:21that's banged the wall and has had to bail out of the lap.
05:25Antonelli next across the line goes up into the top four.
05:30Liam Lawson,
05:31we have a stopwatch on trying to get out of the bottom five.
05:35And he does so.
05:36Well, he improves by one place and one place only.
05:38Albon goes seventh fastest,
05:40pushes Hulkenberg into the tenth place,
05:42make that eleventh as Hamilton crosses the line to go P6.
05:46For Williams, because as Alex Albon has confirmed,
05:49they've got pace.
05:50Oh, that's why Carlos Sainz had to bail out.
05:53That's a huge lock-up, Martin, down at turn 11.
05:57Yeah, it says turn 15 on the computer,
05:59but that's not turn.
06:01That's not turn 15.
06:02That's my mistake.
06:03Ah, they'll have Max Verstappen.
06:05They'll steam through.
06:06It was a 27-2 was the fastest he did in SQ2.
06:10That's a 27-0.
06:12Could George Russell be about to pounce
06:14and claim that provisional pole from the four-time world champion?
06:17And he does.
06:18We're into the 126s.
06:20Just keep going up through the gears.
06:22Keep it a little bit right through the exit
06:24for a short run to the line.
06:26And Hamilton goes P2.
06:28But Max Verstappen is in contention to go P1 once again.
06:32And Kimi Antonelli is flying through the middle part of the lap.
06:35Verstappen goes back on the pole.
06:38He needed a second lap by five one-hundredths of a second.
06:41He is on provisional pole.
06:42Here goes Antonelli.
06:44And for the first time in his Formula One career in any format,
06:48Kimi Antonelli has taken pole position.
06:51But it's only provision.
06:52But here comes Oscar Piastri to the line.
06:55Oh, it's the front row for Oscar Piastri.
06:58Kimi Antonelli is standing at the top of the pile
07:02as Leclerc goes over the line to finish P6.
07:06And Hadjar makes it P9.
07:09It's a round of applause.
07:11It is a maiden pole position for Kimi Antonelli.
07:15Just eighteen years of age.
07:17And no wonder Toto Wolff is smiling.
07:20Yes, mate.
07:21That's P1.
07:23Yes!
07:25Yes, mate!
07:26Go on!
07:27Go on!
07:28Well done, lad.
07:29Huh?
07:30Not bad.
07:31Not bad.
07:32I think we're getting somewhere.
07:34Kimi, you're not an Andrea today.
07:37Definitely not.
07:39I think we're starting to win.
07:40Trust me.
07:41I'm going to find it.
07:42I'm looking back.
07:42Love you.
07:43It's a hidden place for extra teams.
07:44No kidding, mate.
07:45I'm seeing you.
07:46I'm looking back to a list of chess-nya games today.
07:49Let's find it!
07:50I'll work.
07:52Leave it at the end to the end.
07:54Keep your damnos!
07:55To the Times for má»›iini,
07:57never let you slow down!
07:59No kidding!
08:00We Kayla?
08:01Georgiaохmond Peachs will be for humble task!
08:04We'll see you next time.
08:05You know?
08:07In the meantime,
