Lewis, Vettel serve reminder of what title fight could have looked like
Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel lock out the front row of the grid in Austin -- a result which would have been more tantilising for Sunday's race without Ferrari's recent spate of crushing misfortune which has swung the championship out of its grasp.

Another grid penalty issued by the stewards office. This time it's three places for Lance Stroll, who impeded Romain Grosjean in Q1. Stroll was being coached through a setting change by his engineer at the time, and although the stewards took that into consideration, they also noted that it was a very dangerous situation due to the 100km/h speed differential between the cars. Stroll also gets the first superlicence penalty point of his career.

The competition between teams in F1 goes well beyond the track. A mechanical bull has been set up in the paddock along with a leaderboard of top times. Haas and Red Bull currently have some of the longest stints of the weekend, but there's no sign of title rivals Mercedes and Ferrari just yet.
Another impressive effort from Fernando Alonso, dragging his car through Q3. The Spaniard gives one of his renowned bits of glowing self assessment -- "I don't think I could have done any better than that" -- as he returns to the pit lane. Alonso fans can be optimistic, at least, that next year making Q3 should be a formality for the Spaniard as McLaren makes the switch to Renault power.
Former Ferrari chief track engineer and driver academy head Luca Baldisserri will be Lance Stroll's race engineer on an interim basis, Williams has confirmed, while the Canadian's regular engineer, James Urwin, is on paternity leave. Baldisserri was head of the Ferrari junior programme when Stroll was a member between 2010 and 2015.
