Lewis is backing off. He's not showing his pace. He's not used DRS.

But that lap by Verstappen... that'll worry Mercedes. And I think Leclerc has got this pole sewn up right now. He's going to smash it.

He had an enormous tow. Be lucky to get that in Q3 IMO.

He'll get the tow off of Gasly if he gets into Q3. He'll be a sacrificial lamb.

I'm listening to the audio commentary while watching today (unlike yesterday). Why do Sky (e.g. Kravitz just now) not acklowledge that on LH fastest lap he didn't use any DRS in final sector? I deffo think it's a nailed on Ferrari pole, but I think it might be closer than it looks now.

If they can engineer that then good luck, they will deserve it.

[edit]

Ah well, we will find out in 2 hours. Catch you later.

Don't know why they don't make these observations. Think it's a Ferrari front row like Bahrain, the question is who'll make up the second row, I think if RBR do use the tow then Mercedes and Ferrari might have to consider the same. Mercedes are sand bagging, but 1.5 seconds worth? Doubt it, but that is quite the gap.

@AlbertFabrega


This has me scratching my head for the dream team. What the hell is MAG doing up there xD

Bottas speed figures are interesting on his best lap. Early on the brakes into T7 (S1), low speed over the line.
Infact what are we looking at here. How do BOT sectors equate to being ahead of HAM? Have they changed the way they do this timing screen. before it was the sectors that made up the lap, not their best sectors in the session. Man, I'm really struggling to get a grip with F1 this year....

Sod it, face value. Come on Ferrari, reignite this year. Still some fragility in FP3 with work on Sebs car. Hope they have a clean race, even if it does completely wreck me in the league.


@hlawiczka

Elements used after FP3.

RBR opted to change Gasley`s gearbox incurring a 5 place grid drop

Nice insight from James `turncoat` Allison, watched it yesterday on twitter.
