isn't there a hint of more deg for McLaren than Redbull ? or are my eyes tricking me ?

It seems more like Piastri was slowing Norris down.

Yup. Rb's deg is nothing special again. I think Norris is likely to have had the best pace at the end of the race in clean air

what another boring sprint race and the mclaren drivers once again just unable to captilalize on their opportunities. Lando really needs to learn how to get his elbows out instead of kowtowing to the mearest hint of max poking in. he had a strong chance of winning the race today.

Congratulations to Lando Norris once again! What a drive mate…I’ve never seen a driver letting the door wide open while battling for the lead of a race!

You gain experience of things like this by being in "that place you remember". Lando has not had much of it, so I have little doubt it is seared into his memory for next time

Lap 4-5 was a Verstappen masterclass. Norris was ahead with DRS towards T4 and went to P3

Norris has speed but clearly doesn't have the race craft. When attacking or defending from Max you simply cannot give him the inside! And Norris did this twice! I really can't see Norris challenging Max for the championship even if the Mclaren develops into 3 tenths faster.. really can't see it.

My God, this announcer is the worst? Who is he? All he does is repeat the running order like a scratched record! ugh. If he's commenting on the qualifying later, I'm not watching Sky.

QUALIFYING: It's 15 minutes to Q1 & we have the hottest conditions of the race weekend, with air temp at 31.6C & the track 47.8C. Light wind prevailing from the SW. Dry & sunny; FIA official risk of rain is zero.

Harry Benjamin I believe. He needs to calm down. I don’t mind him on F2 and F3 but his ranting at the end of yesterday’s sprint quali has me turning the sound off…

At this rate I’ll be glad to have Croft back.

Why have Red Bull gone out so early?

[Sergej]

Was Max on new or used soft in this last run ?

Used i think

[search]

yeah, Verstappen did both runs on used softs from yesterday (3 laps old each - same as Mercedes)

[Sergej]

good stuff then

Hamilton's car looks to be running too low. He's not going to meet the minimum wear on the car

The car runs higher in the race because the speed is lower so there is less downforce. Dynamic rideheight.

Yup it's crazy aggressive on ride heigh. I'd be surprised if he doesn't pick floor damage up again either in quali or the race
