In testing, the Finn did not give his opponents the slightest chance. Since Friday, he has set the best time in each of the sessions, systematically ahead of his teammate Lewis Hamilton. After a weekend to forget in Monza, Max Verstappen is he back.

Very comfortable on the asphalt of Mugello, the driver Red Bull is determined to interrupt the party of Mercedes, intractable in qualifying since the start of the season.

Victorious at Monza, Pierre Gasly continues its momentum. In good shape and above all fast in testing, the Frenchman is aiming for at least Q3 and why not a Top 5 with his Alpha Tauri, unlike the Renault. Rather efficient this Friday, the single-seaters of the diamond firm suffered this Saturday, perhaps putting an end to the hopes ofEsteban Ocon et Daniel Ricciardo to achieve a good performance in qualifying.

Romain Grosjean for his part, he has the cards in hand to succeed in getting out of Q1. This Saturday, the pilot Haas ranked 10th in FP3 and could join the battle for a place in Q2 this afternoon.

For their 1000th race weekend, the Ferrari are still in the unknown. After an encouraging 3rd place in EL1, Charles Leclerc declined in subsequent sessions. For Sebastian Vettel the situation is much worse. Systematically expelled from the Top 10, the German should experience a new ordeal at Mugello.

Meet at 15:00 p.m. for the start of qualifying.
