Super tight for the top places though, I know it's a short lap but this is great to see

I guess thats why they are pushing so hard, one or two 10ths difference will have a big impact on your start position

Perez is losing qualifying head-to-heads against Hulkenberg, Albon and Ocon in 2023 :lol:

Perez doesn't know what banker means...
It's worst than Albon because it's an amazing car, Albon had a somewhat "bad" car.

I'm loving the strict enforcement of track limits.
Are a joke. Shouldn't be this game of centimeters.
The walls of Monaco and Baku are millimeters, so I see no issue. The track is the track, off the track is off.
Nah, it's not the same. Some puny white lines can't hold same significance as solid walls or gravel, I dont care what those BS rules say. If kerbs were the limits as they were for years and years then this would be avoided entirely or at least in 95% of cases.

I agree. The track limits here are a joke. It should be the kerbs.

Damn, Lecock made it closer than expected. Hoping for a good race. Mclaren made a huge jump if that translates to the race.

Those were some ballsy final corners from Leclerc! Congrats to Max, good job from Lando looks like the upgrade is working for them too.

They’ve had this issue at several other races this season. I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Those final 2 corners looked spetacular from the outside, car absolutely on the edge, hopefully someone (Juzh) can find us the onboard.

Good evolution for Ferrari and Mclaren.

Ferrari had tyre life in Canada, but bad starting position. Hopefully here they can continue that tyre life advantage and fight with Max. I won't be unhappy if they win! =D>
