Unreal lap from George - from nowhere !

No doubt Toto will tell him to punch a hole for Lewis tomorrow into t5

Bottas to start behind both Ferraris, he just never looks fast in the wet. Sadly, he occupies the seat Russell should be in otherwise imagine Russell in a Merc with these sorts of performances.

That's the thing - with no DRS likely (unless it dries up significantly) - the "dirty" top speed and the tow will be crucial.

And now the perez problem is rising
Not really. Perez was 2nd before the final laps but RB timed his laps very badly so he didn´t get that extra lap that HAM, VER and RUS got

George is just too good to be in a Williams, and I say that as a huge Williams fan who would love to see Russell lead the team into 2022 with the new regs.

I was wondering the very same thing, but I doubt there was enough FP running to get reliable data, I guess we'll see tomorrow in the first few laps

fingers crossed for no accidents...

Cor, I hate Max! :lol: Would have loved to see George on pole today.

To those that say Russell isn't any good (and there are some on here that say that), here's the proof - the guy is absolutely the real deal.
In qualifying he is amazing, but in the races he still needs to improve and I'm sure he will.

It is two RedBulls against one Mercedes and our sister car, the Williams, aka our hired road blocker.

Should be a nice fight. :mrgreen:

The other RedBull is in 7th, really it should be Max v Ham with Norris out of the fray.
