    Norris 0.2 and Piastri 0.1 quicker than Verstappen respectively in Q1.

    It’s coming home

    Have they said why Piastri only got half the upgrade?

    wtf was that

    If they’re that good on mediums, that bodes well for the race at least. Got to presume Norris made a mistake somewhere in sector 2 as he lost 0.7 seconds there and purple sector the 3rd

    Unless I’m being a tit, but I’m fairly sure Norris went quicker on mediums in Q2 than what Verstappen set pole with

    Seems the softs either overheated, or they went way too cautious to prevent that happening and they were too cold.

    Got to get them into the right window. That's what people pay to see.

    I enjoyed the long piece article bout Sid Watkins on the beeb the other day, but fucking hell, modern motorsport is so far removed from what it was in the now distant past and not all of it is better.

    I've been watching 2005 (the year of no tyre changes) and while management has always been a thing the extent to which they're able to drive the cars to their limit is so much more apparent.

    It's been spiritually dead since whatever point it was when everyone decided it had to be relevant to the modern motor industry, rather than consisting of a load of rich wingnuts hiring extraordinarily clever people to build them little metal boxes on wheels to fly around fields in.

    Clockwork whirry engines in a massive battleship must go, big roaring engines in a flimsy coffin must return. If you don't want danger, play chess, or golf.

    Without checking anything I know by this alone that McLaren didn't win.

    On second viewing it's a double Stroll/Hamilton whammy.

    Both twats.

    Alonso couldn't do a thing.

    This is my problem with the current penalty system with Magnussen. He's already fucked up and actively ruining a race out of spite now.

    Big drive from Ricciardo that one. Might singlehandedly guarantee he keeps his position for the rest of the year.

    Hamilton eventually gets the penalty he should probably have got at the start.

    Great from Danny Ric. He just needs to do that a bit more often.

    And now he's guaranteed his position he can revert back to shit.

    Wonder if McLaren will use mediums in Q3. I presume not as they’ll need them for the race but he just looks so much better on them

    The discussion was that the soft is very sensitive to temperatures and the out-lap is very important in that respect. Given that his third sector was good in sprint qualifying, you'd assume he fucked it up before his lap even begun.

    Interesting. Magnussen admitted he was deliberately a twat in order to help the team in post-Sprint interviews. The stewards have called him in under the sporting regulations and he could well be punished.

    What was that track temperature? Near 50c? Those tyres just melting with everyone pushing it.

    If you penalise Magnussen for being a dickhead the guy will never race again.

    I was surprised how spicy that got. He had a mission in mind. Also, for all Hamilton did in that T1 incident, Alonso and Stroll were already tangling when he got there.

    No wonder the rest of the world hates them.

    Even the hard tyre is overheating if they push it so my hopes are low for this one.

    I suspect someone(hello Lance) will bin it having cooked their tyres sticking close to the car in front. Not good racing to be had.
