You are free to make your own top10 prediction
You can put Colapinto on 2nd right there after Lando

Yeah . At this moment , it looks bad . MAX is P17 and Checo P19..
According to Helmut Marko , the RB20 ran with the wrong wings .
Too much downforce and cold tires (!)

As you can see in FP2...

Hamilton P1 in FP2, but not that much topspeed difference with Verstappen.

Verstappen didn't mention the "wrong wing", he says it's all in the tires why they didn't perform on one lap. Also said that long runs look a bit more competitive.

RBR runs the lowest engine modes in FP due to Honda requirement, and this usually just corroborates that.
They were doing a much different FP program here than everyone else...doing their homework if you will, and it should have them well prepared for the race. Also mind you last year's pole time was still ~1 second faster than the fastest time we have seen thus far and pole will likely be in the 1:30/1:31 range so we are nowhere near anyone running their outright pace yet.
