Spielberg turns into Suzuka with its own burning grass.

Didn't see what happened with the yellow flag. Were all the other drivers affected by it?

Just Gasly 720 before completing his lap but no much impact

It ruined Piastri's lap I'm pretty sure. Maybe Antonelli's? I didn't watch his onboard so not sure if he got affected or he simply didn't make it in time on his outlap. He was last in the queue and it looked like it would be tight for him to get around to start his last lap.

Replay suggested that Verstappen was affected as well. I didn’t see any yellow flags on his onboard, but he lifted, so not sure. Maybe there was again fire on the grass and he lifted just to make sure?

I think he just aborted his lap? Not sure. He wasn't really improving it looked like.

3rd best was from his previous lap. His last lap was ruined.

Looks like Piastris lap was definitely ruined by the incident: https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/just-not-my-day-f1-title-leader-piastri-sees-austrian-gp-qualifying-lap-ruined/10737219/

It seemed like quite a few drivers were not improving anyways even without the yellows
