Racing Point 6th & 9th. That's disappointing based on their speed.

0.5 ahead on a sub 63 lap, not bad.

If Mclaren sneak into best of the rest (or even 3rd team?) as everyone is focused on Racing Point I'd be so overjoyed

This Lando kid is the real deal eh? :thumbsup:

A Lando podium is something I'd like.

And I hope Mercedes get some mechanical gremlins that force them to slow down a bit, so we can get a good fight tomorrow.

Ferrari being so far off makes you wonder what that engine thing really involved

To be honest, I think they just fucked it up real bad with the whole package.

Lando's such a special talent

Max starting on mediums might make things interesting tomorrow. This isn't over yet

Yeah, not just the engine. They really screwed up the whole car this year.

How good will Mclaren be with Mercedes engines, is the big question :8:

Oh look, another strategy fail by Renault. No wonder Ricciardo has bailed.

Well, given that they have to spend all their development tokens fitting a new engine to a car that wasn't designed for it, we might just have to keep our fingers crossed

Lewis has been called up to the stewards' room for not slowing under the yellow flags for Bottas' excursion. Looks like Max might be on the front row after all!

Bit of a row amongst the drivers coming up?

Not sure how that's fair as it'd be pretty instant between Bottas flying off immediately in front of him and the yellow coming out as he was in that sector

But the stewards and marshals have all the required telemetry in this case so I guess it'll be pretty open and shut

Though considering how they've let multiple drivers off with it in the past (remember Mika in ...98 was it? Holding his hand up to acknowledge the flag white still keeping it foot to the floor flat out) it'd be suspiciously harsh if they clamp down on Lewis for this.

On the other hand you've got Verstappen losing his pole at Mexico last year
