2023 Belgian Grand Prix - Spa-Francorchamps, July 28 - 30

Top-4 starts on softs, Piastri from P5 on medium. Verstappen (P6) also on the softest tyre. Behind Norris, RUssell, Alonso, Stroll and Tsunoda all on medium.

Isn't little rain expected after some 20 laps or so?

Think so. Maybe soft runners extend

What on earth was that haha Perez all over the place!

[McL-H]

Perez should be penalised for changing lines within the braking zone.

what? He braked in a straight line. there was no movement under braking

[omegacel71]

Start reminds me of 2016 ? Similar incident with verstappen there

[GrizzleBoy]

All the trouble came from everyone trying to deal with whatever Perez was doing there...

He went right, then suddenly went left while others were already braking. Sainz had to take evasive action, hit Piastri. Clear penalty.

Race ruined for Everyone stuck behind Sainz. Be a pit stop behind after 10’laps

Max clears Lewis. Only a matter of time now until he gets to Perez

[GrizzleBoy]

Surely they're retiring Sainz.

That closing speed for Max on Ham was amazing. Merc supposed to be one of the fastest without DRS but that RB DRS is scary good.

I think Merc has a chance at 3rd but the Ferrari looks good too, so maybe not.

Rain in 20mins. But not strong

[DGP123]

Easy RB 1-2. Podium between Lewis or Charles. Horrific day for McLaren.

[Matt2725]

Way too easy. Way, way too easy.
