Red Bulls were looking like having problems with the backend of the car.. i dont think its a hard problem to solve but Max and Alex spun the same way on turn 1.. Max were pushing more and he few more sliding moments in FP2.. Ferrari seems focused on the race pace quite a lot maybe they can make a surprise though..

I looked at the mini sectors and they're not having a lot of terrible in the straights as much as they're losing time in the corners. Their front end sucks and it has always sucked.

Edit: nevermind I was reading the chart wrong. That car is shit on straights and turns!

Saw nothing out of Haas to make me think they’ve had any meaningful progress.

Hope I’m wrong. But it’s starting to look like Gunther is the problem. The proverbial all hat (big mouth) and no cattle. If they suck this year again, I think it will be the last season of Haas. Sucks.

Looking forward to quali this afternoon and to the race tomorrow, I have been getting withdrawal symptoms over the past couple of months.

Also, to all our American Friends Happy Independence Day

Love how Lewis can ignore the track limits and not get penalized


I guess in this brave new world we can’t DQ him because it’s racist

That didn't improve his time, so it doesn't matter either way. If it was a time improvement, they would have striked it out.

Keep letting skin color effect your opinion.

All the drivers were on the limit with regards to track limits. As long as you keep one tire on the red/white kerbs you're considered as within track limits. Not much different that other tracks really....

Too true sadly

I'm hoping their Hungary update brings them much closer as it's going to be a rough two weeks for them. Will be curious to see what their race pace is like.

He improved his time in the 2nd stint and the camera clearly showed all 4 tires outside the white line.

That’s exactly what I’m talking about. The ridiculously stupid take that i think he went 4 off because he’s black.

i guess Bottas cut some grass like 500m at least..
Lewis might have taken the pole but whatever its what it is.. Merc's are looking strong.. wondering about the race pace..

seeing Racing Point this competitive is kind of a thing we ll get used to i guess this year.. Red Bulls probably ll have a much better race pace..

and Vettel...

anytime i talk about Vettel they call me a hater... i was thinking Ferrari was harsh on him by not even offering him a contract but i still do though seems like a right move for sure now... if he wont have good race tomorrow, i guess it ll be the total collapse of Seb..

PS: he does that face touching for quite some time already... these days mask might get uncomfortable while talking but before that on average each 3-4 seconds he was doing it already.. what does it say?

not the white line you need to consider.. its the curb on last corner..
there was a talk about it on FP's on F1 TV..

Hoping it’s Red Bull, Mercedes and McLaren as the top 3 teams this year.
