Wow Leclerc. Maybe give Charles the title.... ok, tad far-fetched.

Bloody hell. Skin of the teeth there for Oscar.

Cracking for Hulk getting into Q3.

 

[largebus]

Skin of his teeth there, he picked up some time on Lando importantly.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Oscar just makes it into Q3 but outqualified by Hulkenberg.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

What is wrong with Oscar? 7 tenths slower than his teammate?

 

[gaskin]

Jesus Oscar. 1 second slower than Lando.

 

[gaskin]

McLaren sending Oscar out first again. Hold them back so they get the track evolution.

 

[gaskin]

I reckon that might have been track limits for Oscar.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Oscar on new tires is slower than his teammate on used tires.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

At least Hamilton is slower than Oscar

 

[gaskin]

Lol Ham.

 

[gaskin]

What happened in sector 3? Max, Charles, and Sainz all had yellow sectors.

 

[darth_timon]

0.3 seconds separates everyone from 2nd to 9th, at least the pack will give us interesting racing.

 

[largebus]

Mediocre qual from Piastri but only one pos behind Norris is fine, even if he has less new softs.

 

[gaskin]

1.03 seconds separated the whole grid in Q1. There could be some great racing in the midfield and back if the teams can turn some of that one lap pace into race pace.

He should have the same. Both did a used then new in Q2 and Q3. Lando aborted his final lap in Q2 but still got a bit of use into the tyres.

Glad to see some optimism in here....

Verstappen and Red Bull will win the title. It's nearly a fact which is sad.

Edit: I've had some time to cool down. Probably should give it atleast a few races first lol

Currently watching qualifying on delay - does anyone approve car livery or do they just do whatever they want?

There is a lot going on with these Saubers, they're friggen horrible to look at in the dark under lights.

Who?

Arvid Lindblad

Formula 3

Debut win in F3 Sprint race.
Had to fight his way into the lead, then lost it. Came back and took it again. Within 3 or 4 laps got himself out of DRS range.
Mighty impressive for a 16 year old.

 

[No Quarter]

I don't mind the look of the Saubers

I think it's high time I move on from Danny Ric.. he's going to show glimpses at times but it's a **** tease, and when he comes out each time and goes "uhh yeaah didn't quite get what i wanted" bla bla its the same stuff he always spits out.

Simply being in line with Yuki is not going to get him anywhere, he has to be comfortably ahead of him

 

[Macca19]

I quite like the Sauber. Unique

 

[Macca19]

Alpine horrid. Really disappointing

 

[BomberFan355]

Looks to be a lot closer than last year so far, race pace will be interesting.

I don't think anyone has ever thought there would be a championship battle at any stage this season and probably next. But atleast the field is closely bunched.
