Ah! Thank you.

This is example of comments they give:
"Lando fires-up… Oscar is away on a Used Soft tyre. It took a very long time to get out of the pit-lane, but he has time to get over the line before the chequered flag. Lando shuts it down, he's not going."


Verstappen with a mega lap on used soft. Would he be able to go to Q3 on a used soft in Q2?

[mwillems]

"Lando and Oscar both on a new set of Soft tyres. PER and TSU also on New Soft, everyone else with a Used Soft."

[mwillems]

Oscar just took Lando's purple first sector..

Commentators raving about Oscars ability.

There you go!

Can be frustrating to listen to the commentators as they usually often don't know who is on used tyres.

Verstappen dominating Perez - going 0.4s faster on used tyres.

Ahahaha thanks!

I feel that it makes sense to have two new runs when the track is busier and a greater chance of incidents.
Especially if they trust their drivers to get the times in on Q3 on the final runs, especially if the softs aren't going to be used in the race.

We've dropped back from Max who must have put in a mighty lap. Lando had an issue in the chicane also, but Max was on Used and us new.

Problem for Piastri? Stopped in pitlane

Oh just protecting the new set of softs i guess

[mwillems]

They stopped Oscar from going out as he left the pit.

To save tyres. No problem.

[FittingMechanics]

Perez was sent out on new softs again. He probably has only one for the Q3?

We have two sets - good news. But Max looks unbeatable.

Track ramping up now, will bring others closer in, so those 2 new sets for Q3 will be important.

P1 out of reach I think. If VER can do 1.29.9 on used softs. Let’s get P2 and P3. Fingers crossed

I think so, but Lando had an error on his Q2 fast lap that will pull him closer.

What happened in final 2 sectors on both cars?

[FittingMechanics]

Incredible stuff by Verstappen.

Strange that both McLaren cars couldn't improve on the last lap.

Possibly affected by the wind, its getting gusty.
