2020 Italian Grand Prix - Monza, September 4 - 6

Mercedes have got this in the bag, looks like a certain Bottas pole as he will be running second.

Lewis will just get a tow from elsewhere. 8 other cars on track.

Or he could just decide that he doesn’t need no stinking tow.......like last race.

DAS is MAX POWER!

[etusch]

are mediums faster?

[search]

interesting that it's so close, because normally (unless anyone is carrying way more fuel) now the FP3 result should be closer to the real pecking order in Qualifying than normally

[FrukostScones]

does this this half baked slow lap time rule make any sense?

[Schippke]

Just saw earlier in the session the fastest Speed Trap so far... Romain Grosjean at 351km/h.

Either they're running the power unit at absolute maximum and deployment with minimum (or no!) downforce, or that was a heck of a tow! Wouldn't be expecting a Ferrari powered car to be anywhere near the top, regarding speed.

[etusch]

bottas lap must be deleted ( or it in tolerans or there is sensor issue)

[Schippke]

RED FLAG

More issues for Ricciardo, pulling off to the side. Hopefully he doesn't cop a penalty ahead of qualifying changing one of the units...

[yelistener]

Since they can only use ICE in one mode, FP3's laptime could be very close to the Q3 performance. They can now only run higher MGU-K mode in Quali.

[etusch]

there was a bad sound. Can they change gb or pu in 2 hours? I think he miss Q. It would be good competition there.

[Sieper]

They can fix Ricciardo. No problem. Does he have a penalty free engine left should it be broken?

[RZS10]

whoa

was Lewis the only driver who tried to stay within the mandated time at the end there?

Why wasn't Bottas time deleted? He was clearly off.

[Schippke]

WOW, that was close from Hamilton there... that could've been a major accident. They really need to properly enforcing/regulator a faster Out Lap. Unfortunately, they'll probably react when we get a major accident rather than respond.

Someone could have used a "detuned" map in FP3 so that to sandbag and meantime reduce the number of kilometers/minutes run on the higher performance map, because, as far as I have understood they can use whatever map in free practice sessions. From the beginning of the race they can use only one map (except for safety car and formation laps).
