"Yes guys," says Vettel before reeling off some Italian. "Thanks boys and thanks girls," is as good as you'll get from me translating Italian.

Bethonie Waring: I wonder, did Vettel say this *after* he knew he was on provisional pole. It would look pretty bad if the team came back like "yep, P3 Seb"

Sebastian Vettel jumps to the top, Charles Leclerc second. After attempt one, we've got a Ferrari front row. Seven minutes to go. Vettel three tenths better off than Leclerc.
"That was a good lap, a good lap," says Vettel.
"Yep, well done," Ferrari tell him.
But will it be good enough? It's not all done with just yet.

Francesca, I can feel your pain, although I couldn't wake up at 2am.
