Russell Is Slower Than Hamilton This Season

Lewis Hamilton is having a really solid, maybe underrated season in a Merc. But I wouldn't say that Russell was completely and utterly washed at this stage. He missed out on Q3 by 400s of a second and sometimes just doesn't get the rub of the green. Charles Leclerc, coming out of nowhere, dropped a little fastest middle sector to send me down the Copium hole - he missed out on pole by less than half a tenth.
