Summary
Bearman stunned everyone by qualifying 15th despite calling the Haas car the worst he’s ever driven—after crashing through Q1 and nearly quitting mid-session. Overnight tweaks failed, leaving him 17th in practice, but he clawed his way through Q1 with guts and grit. The team finally dialed in the car’s setup, hitting a “knife-edge window” that boosted pace, though corner speed still lags. With teammate starting 17th, points feel slim—but Bearman’s betting on long-run strength and race chaos to carve out a win. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
