During SQ1 Yuki Tsunoda Found himself unable to advance to the next part of the qualifying session. However, it wasn't due to a poor performance by the Japanese driver, but rather to a misscomunication at Red Bull Racing.
Tsunoda, as he was starting his lap, found teammate Max Verstappen ahead, and braked to let the Dutchman go. Nevertheless, Verstappen then bolted to the pits.

George Russell led the session ahead of teammate Andrea Kimi Antonelli with Verstappen placing P7 even after bailing on his lap.
