So many drivers, so many times removed for track limits.
Sergio Perez had 3 times deleted.
Oscar Piastri, Nico Hulkenberg, Lance Stroll, Fernando Alonso and Alex Albon all had one deleted.
And they're just the ones I remember.

Saturday is a whole new ball game as the Friday results will have no impact on the Sprint format of the show.
