Perez crossed the line with just enough time for another lap and the only driver to do so but failed to make it of Q1.

Was it due to the tyres being too cold from waiting for ages at the end of the pitlane or because he's not on form lately?

It seems that all the drivers that went out first all had slower times.

Do you think he would have done a better lap had he been able to complete it?

Ultimately unlucky. He was put in the worst position, completely at the front.

However, a little before that, he and Max set laps just seconds after other so the conditions were exactly the same. And Max was 1.4 seconds faster.

Max will be Max, so that he is a bit slower is perfectly fine. But 1.4 seconds is just plain embarrassing.
