What's wrong with Mercedes.
They lack beans. For now at least.

I would assume they're overheating the rear tyres? You can see them taking off the blankets early.

Didn’t notice it so much yesterday, but the track looks quite deteriorated compared to last years. A lot more bumps and repair patches.

Surprising because the roads in the Houston/Austin area are pretty good compared to the rest of the US.

From what I understood you have to touch the white line on the right to trigger it.

A lot closer than expected! Good for Ferrari having Kimi in front of Bottas.

Close, nail biting finish to qualifying - and people want to change the format!

Ferraris very close to Hamilton’s time. What now? No second sensor? :lol:

Congratulations to Lewis on his lap.
