And Verstappen is out in Q1 (crash). This is going to make it quite a race tomorrow, given he'll be now starting at the back and will surely attempt a few passes. I predict another crash tomorrow. That quick RedBull at the back is just asking for trouble IMO.....
Not for nothing, Rosberg's Championship is the only thing that lends credibility to Hamilton's recent success. Otherwise, he'd just be the guy who's had the best car. — bhall II

It's 3.6 secs slower than the real lap record from 2004.
Because of track layout changes last year they count only the record of the new layout

BTW, Jenson did 1:15.5, is that 7 tenths faster than his fastest time in any FP?

Second might be the consequence of the first, small kiss and steering arm was broken.

Interesting, but I think it'll be a gamble that will be difficult to work. Even if he gets pole (big if), I think being on the weaker tire first will set you up for a disadvantage, because when you do your pitstop, you will most likely be behind someone. And if you fail get pole, your pace is limited by track position...
