    Jesus wept... That Williams definitely wont take part in the race!!
    I think that would be classed as an insurance write off!

    Wow what a grid we've got!!!
  • Wow... I thought Russell by delaying his lap was going to pull pole out of the bag

    So close!!

    Norris looked like he might be out in Q3 as well. Great job, just hope we get some racing later

    I wouldn't be surprised if we only had about 8 cars finish the race. 
    As for predicting the result,  forget it.

    I think we'll get something, quite how many cars make it I don't know. I doubt Albon makes it , think Sainz has the best chance if it's not a gearbox.

    All those crashes are great for Verstappen as will probably mean more pit lane starts

    Not surprised to see Bearman struggling in these conditions, as dont think he's really driven in them before - But would have expected Hulkenberg to do a lot better
    Hulkenberg and Magnussen must be the most boring driver partnership going.

    I don't think Magnussen can be described as boring.

    Safest... or uninspiring would probably be the better word to describe that line up.

    Yeah it's just uninspiring. I don't think Ocon and Bearman will be boring next year!

    I agree with that. It's just a shame that the FIA have been happy to find foul time and time again with Magnussen's driving while letting Verstappen drive anyone that wants to challenge him off the track without, before last week, doing anything about it. I would class him as the bigger danger of the two.

    Are you kidding? KMag is an absolute nutter, there's a reason he's the first driver to get a race ban for consistently driving into other people
  • Sky are always pretty good when it comes to explaining things via. that Sky Hub - Red Bull and fans have been complaining about the time it took for the Stroll Red Flag

    Only for Sky to show that Stroll was trying to get the car moving, so why would a Red Flag be thrown out, if he got it going properly again
  • Albon has officially been withdrawn from the race.

    And Sainz starting from the pit lane makes it even easier for Verstappen to come through the field.

    Albon has a habit of binning it recently. Sainz is also prone to a crash or two hope Williams may as well pack a spare car next season

    Verstappen 12/1. 

    Worth a punt….
  • Looks like they're going to make Verstappen start P17 regardless of who starts in the pit lane lol!

    Interesting that Albon’s grid box just gets left empty instead of everyone moving up one

    So will they leave gaps on the grid, or move everyone forwards?
