Best part of Lewis pole is that it makes Georgie look even worse.

Perez just happy to be there in q3

Sky pundits so torn….

Over the moon excitement for Lewis or devastating bad sportsmanship that stole George’s qualifying lap, funny listening to the flip flop

Hulk drags the Haas into Q3 again. Nice.

One has to wonder if the RB update may have slowed the car down. Hasn't seemed all that impressive at any point this weekend.

It would save like 3000+ tires a season. Something like 8 tires per car per race.
I know that's the reasoning given but I don't understand it.

They could have kept the same Quali rules and just still limited each team to 11 sets, so not sure what this has to do with it.

That being said, I did enjoy this format as is just for the entertainment of it, with teams doing more laps.

What’s the post of unwritten rule?

Out of the loop. What happened?

can't steal up more than 5 runs

No bunting to break up no hitter

No passing current world champion anywhere

Max’s unwritten rule is that he should always win, and if he doesn’t, wreck or blame.

Can Lewis or Lando actually win tomorrow? Tough track to pass.

That was back in China 2019 or something. Max was queuing and someone passed in theblast corner.

Came up about some "gentleman's agreement" about queing. Best way to explain it is when you get screwed by the "agreement" like George did today you go on about its existence.

When you are about to get screwed with cold tires or time because someone is driving slow the "agreement" goes away.

Under normal circumstances, yes. Max will pass HAM in the first corner or within 5 laps of DRS.

I would expect fireworks in that battle.

Or maybe good for race pace and deg?

Taking each other out would be ideal.

I think I saw something where Max had the best race pace in practice but not by much.

didn't see much in practice but the DRS was completely useless in the F2 race. Straight is just too short. But i guess we will see
