Shocked they haven't swapped. Last lap switch won't be possible when Verstappen goes past Norriss shortly. McLaren screwed him again.

Think you're all overestimating how important the drivers' title is to them.
Finally some good strategy pulling off the switch before a potential safety car.
They dun fucked it up. Why didn't they swap when Verstappen was 2 seconds away?
Edit: Never mind I guess.
Lawson was dangerous as fuck with Perez into T1, he should get a grid penalty for that. Seems hot-headed for a kiwi.
Max almost had him there.
Jesus.
Conspiracy theorists coming out the woodwork here saying they held off the green flag long enough so Max couldn't dive up the inside there.
Coulthard suggested that he could have made the pass but the green flags might not have been up yet so he had to back out.
It shouldn't have been a VSC in the first place, elf and safety gorn mad.
Was gonna say Max must have been right on the ragged edge of whatever the VSC rules are, pulling alongside Piastri.
PUNISH HIM.
Mon the stewards.
I was hoping max would catch both papaya's slippin at the restart.
5 second penalty for Max
Drops to 4th.
It's being manipulated.
Five second penalties are so weak.
The rain at Interlagos however, is not. Qualy delayed.
It’s only a bit of rain ffs
Will be interesting to see which of the young pups can handle these conditions and to what extent Hamilton and Alonso cruise to the front as has historically happened.
Is the McLaren still mega in the wet or was that a last year thing?
Red Bull now getting shirty about other teams maybe sneaking water into their tyres.
Quali isn't happening clearly.
Apparently if they can't do a session the race order is set by championship order.
Do they not just qualify in the morning tomorrow?
I think the weather forecast is for this again tomorrow.
If they can, they will.
In these circumstances they should make the drivers do a lap of the circuit on foot and that decides the grid.
Or order it by least to most Dutch.
Pretty sure the weather is meant to be worse tomorrow. Max will be laughing.
(Unless they can do it another day but I presume that’s not a thing)
Maybe they should just design cars/tyres that can run in the wet.
Good on Lewis giving Stefano some shit.
The word is Ferrari set their car up for wet running, which explains them cooking their tyres in the sprint.
Could well be on for a Spa washout here though.
Pack of fannies. What’s the point in wet tyres if the rules mandate they have to build cruise liner size cars so it’s unsafe anytime we get a good shower?
There isn't. The entire rules are in hoc to the stupid bogus engine tech.
BTCC going to biofuel from next year.
Too dangerous to sensibly contemplate was the strap line for F1 for the best part of 50 years.
7.30am local time start tomorrow for quali. Poor drivers
That probably means the mechanics get 2 hours sleep.
It's still raining.
Hulk free money.
This is quality stuff. Yellow flags, red flags, cars not even visible to the cameras, Yuki on provisional pole if it rains much harder.
Both Mercs in big trouble here.
George really could have fucked up Albon there.
The visible drains are the same ones i find outside my house.
Also nore gravel traps and stuff please. All this tarmac run off areas gives drivers get out of jail, free cards.
Can see Norris getting fucked here.
I thought he was fucked.
