Checo needs to step up, otherwise Bottas could be a good pairing for Max. He would bring significant intel from Merc.
I have a feeling that it could well be considered bringing BOT into RB unless Checo can miraculously stay within 5 seconds of the second placed car or even do better.
BOT's knowledge of Merc would have a bearing on it tho with this in mind merc may want to keep BOT? Idk but leclerc is coming into the picture now being that Ferrari can only go forwards in dribs and drabs and he would want out if it continues like that.

That's a normal reaction from the Japanese engineers . They had to check first all the PU parameters from the rebuild (crash) HONDA PU and how it ran during the FP's on track .
Today Red Bull got a 'full green light to pull the PU 'more open...

Hammy's gone quicker on the meds but Max could well come back with the softs..
and Sainz stuffs it into the barriers. Session stopped.

SAI's Q2 shunt really portrayed how well the u-shaped removable collar that surrounds the driver minimizes lateral G's....as SAI hit the wall evenly with both drivers left wheels, his helmet only moved a small amount from the lateral G load.

NHRA top-level championship drag racing has taken this lateral load limiting design a step further for the two nitromethane categories (Top Fuel Dragster and Funny Car) and the u-shaped collar is literally an interference fit between the collar and the helmet, creating a "cradle" that significantly limits lateral G transfer to the head and neck.

Almost half a second behind HAM which is surprising. Should make a great and interesting start tomorrow with VER behind both Mercedes.

Checo didn't make the final go in Q3 and Max could only marginally improve but at least Checo is just behind him,Christian will want to know how Perez f* up his final run not making the flag.

Mercedes front row lockout AND starting the race on Mediums. Advantage Mercedes.

Max has a 5 meter advantage in the run to the first turn and a possible slipstream from HAM or BOT. The first turn will be interesting.

During the last Q3 lap . HAM was playing his dirty game by running in a walking pace with MAX just behind him !
By this MAX couldn't get his tyres on temp .Because HAM got P1 already anyway..
That's why HAM got during his speech a whistling sound concert from the spectators...

As I said : Checo has to wake up...

Really doesn't matter who or what team did it, that was a brilliant strategy period. At the end, it earned Mercedes P1 and P2.

I lol'd at Rosberg's "look at the games" comments. But it's true, Lewis was backing them up in the pits and entire out-lap. I'm surprised Horner wasn't on the phone complaining about driving unnecessarily slowly.

The race to the first corner is going to be interesting. 500m to the first corner and both RB's are on softs with the Merc's on Mediums. LH predicts the softs are worth 5m at minimum in that distance.

great to see Lewis takes a pole after quite a while!

what re the odds of Max hitting Lewis in the first corner from behind and gets a penalty? not that small.. then see what Horner says for a possible race ban for Max.. im sure he d say its against the regulations..

Negative mate !
Probably you didn't heard what HAM said ?

Well he said : I'd do it again !
HAM had to be black flagged at Silverstone and surely now as he said , I'd do it again !
Dirty Tricks from HAM side . Just like today in the last Q3 lap !

FTFY !
