Anyone wanna take a shot on what position George (a) qualifies and (b) finishes the race?

I will kick this off....P5 in quali and finishes P3

I just hope he does not push too hard and fails to finish. All he needs to do is drive as he can and let the rest take care of itself. I will go Qualifies 7th and finishes 7th! Its not easy jumping into a totally different car the performance differences alone will be something he has to get used to add to that the systems on the car and buttons on the wheel. Its a lot to ask.

If he does well will it be Bottas back to Williams and Russell to Mercedes next season. I doubt it but 2022 it may well be that way.

You are right Neil, it wont be a walk in the park and I am being very optimistic in my guess but I have every faith in the lad, add in its a reasonably straight forward circuit that no-one has previously driven....oh, and it will suit the powerhouse of a Merc.

Having 4 Brits on the grid makes Papa happy.   

But there's always been 4 this season?

Quali P2, finish P3.

To be honest, the most important thing for him is to make sure and score points. He is getting perilously close to the record for most starts without a point scored (held by Luca Badoer 58 entries, 50 starts).

[morini]

Does this one stop at 48? Or will the tally carry on if LH finishes the next race he starts (whenever that may be)? I'm honestly not sure.

No idea, but you would think that is the end of his run regardless of reason.

Ok 4 young Brits.   

My guess/hope Quali 4th Finish 3rd

Why? Don't get the regardless of reason bit.

It depends on if that record only takes into account races entered. He won't be entered for Sakhir so I'm thinking that run will continue from the next race he is entered in. I'm not 100% though, hence the question.

Like I said I honestly have no idea, my thinking was as he is not competing this weekend that would then be the end of his "consecutive race finishes".....again I have no idea if this takes into account races entered/started but wouldnt have thought so.

[morini]

I guess we will find out at his next start then. I still think that might not be until next season.
