51*C Track Temp. Hard to see Merc getting tyres working for that at all. Conditions suit Ferrari.

Why are Mercedes going out again? They're entirely safe. I wonder if they want to heat cycle a set of tyres...

They upped tire pressures, and I think they wanted to see if that had a positive effect.

I expect Vettel will take pole.

Well I expected Merc to be at least half a second ahead of Ferrari.

Good lap from everyone! Curious about the race. Just a bummer got a b-day party tomorrow starting 1 hour before the race. I feel like needing to charge my battery block and hoping for some good 4G!

Gratz to Lewis taking pole under pressure!

A minute's silence for those who were expecting Mercedes to 'wipe' the floor with Ferrari at Silverstone.

Kimi with a 5 (or 6?) races old spec 1 engine just a tenth off Hamilton's time with a relatively fresh spec 2.1 engine on a Mercedes and specially Hamilton track? Amazing job from Ferrari.
A pity Vettel didn't manage to be faster in his second run. He definitely had the pace. Probably Ocon in front of him was a bit of a problem.
