In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Yeah pole by 0.6sec in the wet, fair play. Brilliant to see Alonso on the front row
Yep, bit of a correlation between a car that doesnt porpose and being quick. If only ferrari and Mercedes can get rid of their porposing....
Wow that was absolute domination by Max.
Insane today. Out of this world.
Nice to see a different grid for tomorrow.

They always screw up the audio for these interviews..
I forgot JV looks like an ostrich egg.
Russell on slicks 
First corner slow as a snail and then bins it in the 2nd.

Glad someone tried the slicks.
Sadly unless Max has a hiccup somewhere it's going to be a boring race at the front, he'll be a good 2 seconds in front by the end of the first lap.
Good result for Lewis, the bouncing looks horrendous.
Can Merc/Ferrari fix their porpoising issues, please...

I don't understand Mercs logic there, their car isn't the worst out there.
Great to see Alonso up front!
Sainz too slow, and it seems like him and Perez make a big mistake every weekend in one of practice/qualifying session.

Ferrari have the quickest car on the grid over one lap, the porpoising is irrelevant to them.
What happened to vettel?
Me neither, Lewis p4 so George could've at least been p3 or maybe front row.
This aged well.
Why would a driver who never has quicker race pace ever be the number 1 driver!
That's Max 6-3 or something in qualifying. Bottas would do similar versus Hamilton some years and no one ever wanted him to be No 1.
Fact is Max is just crazy good.
I think the Aston Martin found a sweet spot with the inters but just couldn't make it work on the wets

Rimaldo is a troll, ignore him
The difference between Leclerc's and Sainz's time is ridiculous counsidering Leclerc was on full wet, and Sainz was driving on almost dry track and inters.
Really hope its wet tomorrow otherwise it's going to be a total snoozefest
Dry race tomorrow
If you take out the Red Bull, which is just a much better car than everyone else's, the rules have done a decent job of stirring things up this season - there's a real battle for "second best team" at the moment, with Ferrari being fast but lacking reliability (and shredding tyres), Mercedes bouncing around like mad but able to finish races to capitalise, and then just behind them are a cluster of teams with McLaren, Alpine, and Alfa duking it out. If I'm right, only Schumacher has no points so far, which is fun.
I have to say the qualifying has been spectacular this season. Every week it feels like its even better than the last. In dry conditions it's been very close. Today was fun as well with the changing conditions. Purple lap after purple lap.
Sorry, can’t say I agree with that. The rules haven’t done much to promote great racing which it’s bigged up for two years. Cars can follow to an extent but we’re not seeing the close racing they’d expect.
The longer these regulations are held for then we’ll see the benefit of them in the racing, but we’re miles away from that.
Erm what? Sainz was 11 seconds faster under those conditions you've described?
Open net for Max today and he duly delivered, no doubts he will tomorrow.
Don't think he's ready it or understands it correctly.
It could have been a masterstroke to be fair, but Russell should have been way more cautious into that first corner.
He needed to avoid that huge puddle and tip toe until he got to the dry sections where he could make up the time.
It's a shame really as he was looking very quick in those conditions, as we've seen with him at Spa.
Easy pole for Verstappen, should be a walk in the park for him tomorrow.
Very good from young Mick there.
Keep it clean tomorrow, no heroics, Mick needs some pts.
First corner will be interesting today. Alonso said it out loud, he won't back down, he will fight for that corner.
As it should be. He should go for the win if he can.

Team Radio after Alonso crossed the line was epic, his race engineer about to come, you could hear it in the voice, and in the back others yelling.
Oh my God this Feels so good

That has mixed things up quite a bit. When's the last time the first five drivers were all from different teams?

a cornered rat will often lash out. let’s see if he has what it takes to consistently out perform perez or if this was just a blip.
indisputable. he could end up the greatest ever on paper but similar to the novak tennis debate when it comes to who is the greatest, he’s just not that likeable a character. it’s clear why people still pull for nadal or federer because they don’t come across as quite so much of a dick. regardless of stats, he’s just not a warm protagonist to root for. and just like with novak, that means outside of his rabid fanbase he’s just not that popular.
hey now, no fighting.
He meant a cute one
I’d walk over your bridge
aww thanks
i guess me running out from the bridge in tattered underwear, screaming “have you heard about our lord and saviour, lewis h. amilton” in the faces of bewildered passersby is pretty endearing.
Yep, totally agree.
F1 became a farce last season and this season was a chance for a new start. They have fecked it.
Controversial post coming up... Max is good but is he great.. How can LeClerc have more poles than him over their careers
We forget Seb won 4 World titles and dominated an era but even that isn't enough for the majority to place amongst the greats.
