I really hope these Alonso times are legit. I want to see what Papa Stroll does with one car fighting for podium and the other fighting to get in the points.

I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss Lance just yet, he ended up P6 with a couple busted wrist after missing all of testing last week. We can't circle jerk Alonzo and shite on Lance being .5 back.

Not yet anyway.

AM needs to get Stroll out of the car. He can barely turn the wheel

I bet he can still turn the wheel when there is a car in the mirror that he never looks at

End of season. Adjustments to your picks close before FP3.

Spicy round. Think I need to move Aston up a little. Still hope Merc is sandbaggin'

Make sure your picks are right. Changed mine around a little based on PIA and Aston glory runs.

Think I have ALB and DEV swapped, but going with it.

Okay, Alonso. You've made your point.

And Hulk in P5.

For reference, Leclerc got pole last year at 1:30.558.

Main question now for AMR is reliability. 10 laps to go, does the car blow up?

Sidenote. Alonso is such a good driver. Amazing he's still at this top level at this age.
