Another eventful qualifying session in the 2022 F1 season saw severe rainfall, five red flags, and a myriad of emotions. Max Verstappen bagged his 75th pole position for Red Bull at the Imola GP qualifying, while his team-mate Sergio Perez had a rather underwhelming Friday with a seventh-place finish. This sets the grid for Saturday's sprint, which will in turn set the final grid for the main race on Sunday.Despite going on a sensational lap a day after announcing an exciting two-year contract extension with Ferrari, Carlos Sainz spun into the gravel and hit the wall in Q2. The Spaniard will hence be starting the sprint race on Saturday from tenth.The Spaniard's incident brought out the red flag and did not allow enough time for the rest of the drivers to improve their times set on soft tires before the incident. The restart saw a significantly wetter track due to the increased rainfall, leaving the existing bottom five in Q2 at a bigger risk of being eliminated. Both Mercedes cars failed to reach Q3 for the first time since the 2012 Japanese Grand Prix, correspondingly ending an impressive streak of 187 consecutive Q3 appearances.Just a few minutes into the qualifying session, the rear right-hand corner of Alex Albon's Williams caught on fire as the brakes simply exploded. The flaming debris brought the session to an abrupt end, while his teammate Nicholas Latifi qualified eighteenth.Kevin Magnessun matched his best qualifying finish in F1 with a fourth-place finish, while both McLarens had a decent session, given their struggles so far this season. Aston Martin made their first Q3 appearance in 2022 with a ninth-place finish for Sebastian Vettel.The session was interrupted time and again with several spins and collisions. McLaren, Aston Martin, and Haas had a particularly good Friday, while it will be a day to forget for the likes of Mercedes and AlphaTauri.Here are some of the best fan reactions to the 2022 F1 Imola QualifyingElvis 🇦🇺@elvisch16Carlos sainz is the new Latifi #ImolaGP #f11Carlos sainz is the new Latifi #ImolaGP #f1 https://t.co/eWG5Q16iwWDave Gaming@DaveGaming73Mercedes be like:#F1 #Formula1 #Formel1 #ImolaGP1604Mercedes be like:#F1 #Formula1 #Formel1 #ImolaGP https://t.co/jNQ22PpIIIMatt Gallagher@MattyWTF1If you cause a red flag, the driver should lose their laptime imo84746If you cause a red flag, the driver should lose their laptime imo마일어🏎🍩@MyloReddevilCars trying to set lap times in quali sessionsWilliams:#ImolaGP102Cars trying to set lap times in quali sessionsWilliams:#ImolaGP https://t.co/1OzruMI76z View this post on Instagram Instagram PostMcLaren Doggo@McLarenDoggoCheeky red flag snooze. #ImolaGP26Cheeky red flag snooze. #ImolaGP https://t.co/VQAMEXb4nPJoe@JoeOnSporttHe PoRpOiSiNg On ThAt MeRc ^ how I imagine typing a tweet in the Mercedes would look#F1 #Imola #ImolaGP #MercedestHe PoRpOiSiNg On ThAt MeRc 😳^ how I imagine typing a tweet in the Mercedes would look#F1 #Imola #ImolaGP #MercedesNeel¹⁷ 🇧🇪 | IT'S RAWE CEEK!!! 🇮🇹@neelshah248Those were some nice fireworks #F1 #Formula1 #ImolaGP #WTF1191Those were some nice fireworks💥 #F1 #Formula1 #ImolaGP #WTF1 https://t.co/gsVEpRxAaVsourabh modi@sourabh_modi#F1 Williams at it again #ImolaGP252#F1 Williams at it again 📛#ImolaGP https://t.co/OaJqGvb6T6BONG🇿🇼@africaniismCarlos Sainz after a every crash #ImolaGP6Carlos Sainz after a every crash #ImolaGP https://t.co/iGfYHi5YPFMattzel89@Mattzel89Rain #ImolaGP479Rain #ImolaGP https://t.co/5gehX3IjruChanté@Chante_PoppieVettel into Q3?
