What the f*** is Hulk doing? That was borderline impeding of all the drivers behind him
They can always overtake him?

Not overtaking on the outlap is unwritten law ... best thing is that he did not even set a time after that joke of an outlap

cars are slow AF. I'm starting to think pirelli with its absurd tire pressure limits is a major contributing factor.
Looks like Spa is Hockenheim at a much worse level. 2019 couldn't beat 2018 Hockenheim S3 and Spa S2, but technically they should.

Albon getting in Max head? Max seems to be finding gremlings all over the car. :mrgreen:
Leclerc is amazing. consistently 6 tenths faster than Vettel, rock smashingly so, but lets see if vettel has the last laugh with setup for the long runs.
Prediction: Seb will be with him by the end. The big gaps so far have usually come when Seb made a mistake and I think Charles was really pushing in Q1.
Shows what I know!!!

Leclerc showing his stuff, good quali in the end. Let's see what the start, the weather and the race pace does tomorrow morning. Great to be back!

Aren't they all (well, apart from apparently today Leclerc, and good on him, and also congrats to him on that pole) fiddling around in that way?

Nice qualy! Interesting though, Seb seemed mega ok with P2. I wonder if he purposefully wanted to be in that position, so he could get the massive slipstream in the first lap. That's if he keeps that second place at the start.

Ricciardo caught them because of it lol.

You usually respect the guy in front, but Hulk was giving way.

Great performance by Leclerc. First win tomorrow? I think so, he was totally relaxed when asked. Don’t think their pace will be a problem.

BS as Max had to find out last year, there is no unwritten law of not overtaking during outlap

The Ferrari is good on a 1 or 2 lap run but on the long run they lose out big time on Mercedes
