Verstappen out in Q1! Nuts.
Alex Jacques said it’s the first time he’s ever been out in Q1 purely on pace??
He also said it’s only the second time Max hasn’t made it out of Q1. The first time was in Brazil last year.
No he was P12 last year and took a 5 place grid drop, dropping him to P17.
F1.com also says it’s the first time he’s ever been out in Q1 purely based on pace.

I didn’t expect that!
He has now more time for a rain dance.
Really sad. That basically puts an end to the title fight unless something miraculous happens tomorrow.
To be fair, Verstappen was never in the title fight bar anything miraculous happening
