Best of luck to the entire team. Hopefully both cars make it around lap 1 without incident so we can try and secure some good points for the constructors!

On a positive, Max has to start thinking about Leclerc. If VER crashes with NOR it will allow LEC to join the fight for the WDC. About 54 points with 4 races to go and two teams probably faster than Max.

If the gap between Max and Leclerc was bigger I am sure he would be super aggressive against Norris here. He still might do it, but at least it's not a clearcut decision.

Everyone raise your hands in the air and give your positive energy. We will be first after that first turn.

Damn Max is lucky as Sainz made a mistake. Onwards to try and gain some places if we can. Can Lando push or do we need laps before the tyres get into the correct temperature?

Works only if your heart is pure with no ill intentions towards anyone else otherwise it backfires... which it has.
The cheapest sort of pride is national pride, every miserable fool who has nothing at all of which he can be proud adopts, as a last resource, pride in the nation to which he belongs; thus reimbursing himself for his own inferiority.

Nobody has a pure heart. Did Max pushed Sainz again off the track in a classic move?

Perez noted for false start.

We should be better at restarts then Ferrari.

Should be a slam dunk penalty, he was way out of his box.

5 second penalty for false start? I am waiting to see when someone jumps the start intentionally wanting to get clear air.

5 seconds for a false start? I remember this used to be a stop & go.

That is indeed questionable. He gained 5 places from a false start and he has the car to make distance for the 5 sec to even take effect.
