What's this 2mm meme? I never heard of it.
At the end of practice 3, what was that by Latifi? He just came back on track straight on (across). Why didn't he turn left and go on the straight? Vettel did it just fine at much worse position.

More talk from Sky re: which corners will have track limits enforced. My pet peeve. It should be enforce at ALL corners.

It’s on page 1 or 2 of this thread I think. It’s about a slight dip in the track at the chicane.

It was the final corner, he had a moment on exit.

Track evolution is going to be massive here. Could be a few shocks.

Same again in Q2. Even with Hamilton on Mediums. Max may be using the 2mm in the wrong area ?

Yeah Verstappen was .067 less than a tenth off on sector 3. Final corner is tricky, it's one of those corners the car doesn't like, luckily the car seems to like the rest of the track. Unfortunately that is a very time critical corner.

Eh..... why did Hamilton go faster on the softs when the medium is time and time again the best tyre to start.

Not too bad tire wear, first pit stops will likely be around lap 16-17 on softs, what we don't know is if the two stop will be faster than the one. The hard is too hard and the medium won't last much longer than the soft. It's looking like a two stopper, to me.
