Internet reacts to qualifying GP of France
This Leclerc, Verstappen battle has been incredible this year

Both drivers selecting another gear and doing it respectfully is only helping make this title battle so enjoyable
Great strategy call from Ferrari to keep Sainz out in order for him to give his teammate a tow down the long straights. However, with Sainz at the back for tomorrow’s #FrenchGP Leclerc will have plenty of pressure on him especially with two Red Bull’s behind him.

Don’t let leclerc getting pole distract you from the fact sainz was faster all weekend

Great laps by Sainz first in Q2 and then Leclerc who proved the speed of Ferrari today.

Red Bull is quicker on straights, but Ferrari has control in slow speed, which could be crucial for tomorrow's race.#F1 #FrenchGP
Fair play to Ferrari for managing to pull that off.

So Haas has their driver who'll need to start at the back, in Q3.

And their driver who doesn't have to start at the back, starting at the back.
