When things are boring, media companies invent emotional situations. So panning to a parent who is, most likely, bored silly invents a narrative in the minds of the viewer. They think.

Between this and the recurring talk about who hurt whose feelings, it’s easy to forget these are meant to be full-grown adults pushing the limits of themselves, of each other, and of what’s possible (at least, that was why I first got into F1).

is the soft tire going to be used in the race? Merc are currently losing almost a second a lap to Mclaren on the medium tires rn, Lewis getting caught and passed by Piastri on their long runs. Lewis' tires were 14 laps old, Lando's 22 at the end.

Piastri's soft tire race sim was quite bad. Big drop off and then he boxed.

Lando's McLaren showing 3 tenths on Red Bull in race trim. Soft tyre has shown to be extremely poor, except for George who had the most consistent run of anyone that ran Softs.

Considering the delta between Perez and Max this season, I am expecting Max to be challenging Mclaren for pole tomorrow

Could be, Norris said Merc had their engines turned down and believes they're just as fast as Mclaren

Fuel run on M, laps very close in terms of track time.
6 and 15 reveal engine mode difference.
Considering that, 9-10-11-12 looks mega for Redbull.
Not sure of McLaren fuel levels.
Throttle position traces make for an interesting viewing as well.

I expect McLaren to slap on a bigger wing for quali.
